Reviews of professor David Carnevale

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. C is a nice man but his class is way too hard. A lot of professors have changed their teaching style/grading over the past year so don't listen to the old reviews. Our average for exams are in the 60s and a lot of people are struggling to do well- even those who took AP Chem in high school. I personally wouldn't recommend

Made Chem 2 as easy as he possibly could. He really cares for his students and makes the test material clear. There are no surprises on the tests, he warns you of everything you will see. No quizzes, labs are good. He's not a harsh grader and is super accessible outside of class. Def recommend him!!

Professor Carnevale is definitely the guy to take for gen chem. I truly believe that if you find the way he teaches this course to be difficult, you certainly will not find any other professor that will make it any easier for you. He's super understanding and wants you to succeed. Highly recommend!!

I am not a great Chem person, and I had to take his class remotely because of the pandemic, he was always so very helpful and answers all your questions. He respects those who put in work, if you are going to SI sessions and office house and you still struggle, he's very helpful. But if you don't put in any effort he has little sympathy for you.

Honestly the best chem professor there is at nova, like the whole department. I had a very bad experience with my chem 1 professor who made me feel dumb for not knowing chemistry and I was worried about taking chem 2 because of it. But I loved his class! He keeps you paying attention and wants you to succeed.
