Reviews of professor Michael Bender

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Great Professor. Very funny and relatable. If you are not good at chemistry, this class may be a struggle. Go to office hours and make sure not to miss class. He posts all the lecture PowerPoints online. Quizzes most Fridays and few tests. He is a picky grader so be sure to have all the details right. Overall enjoyed class and lab with him.

If you have another option then take it. The labs are graded so harshly and anytime I emailed him the response I received was rude and not helpful. If you ever have any questions about class I would recommend you ask someone else first.

This guy is really rude. People will ask him questions and he just brushes them off like they are stupid. His lectures are full of pointless metaphors that make no sense. My least favorite thing about him is he takes any and every opportunity to take points off. My grade doesn't reflect chem it reflects following picky instructions that arent clear
