Reviews of professor Kevyn Gardner Ricossa

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
the subject is difficult but she teaches very well, you just have to put in the effort. tests are hard but if you do the practice problems, youll be fine. if you need help, ask questions and go to office hours. also lecture is a lot and fast paced so review and dont study last minute! lots of ec opportunities

I've taken OCHEM with two different professors at this school, and prof Gardner-Ricossa was certainly the best. The subject is difficult for sure, but I feel like her lectures are very thorough. Homework is graded on completion and you have access to the correct answers, and you get a cheat sheet on exams. She also grades assignments pretty quick.

Organic Chemistry is a hard class to start, but the professor does a good job of explaining topics. The curve is really good to help grades, and cheat sheets are allowed for exams and notecards for quizzes. Lectures are recorded and posted to canvas which is helpful, and she does present the class over zoom as well. Highly recommend this professor.

There are a few extra credit opportunities. Overall her class can be confusing and difficult. I would focus on the practice quizzes and exams to help you better understand the way she words her quizzes and exams.

Very caring & willing to work with you to make sure you understand what is expected of you. She's sweet & understanding. Easy grader. Gives out lots of extra credit. I just don't see how you can fail this class unless you absolutely turn nothing in.

Amazing and very sweet professor. Ochem is an extremely hard subject but she makes it very doable. Majority of the grade is based off of exams, quizzes, and homework. She is a very lenient grader when it came to grading our quizzes and exams. Tons of EC opportunities. She records all of her lectures so attendance isn't required but is recommended.
