Reviews of professor Savita Srinivasa

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
She is a very caring teacher, and will work with you to try and help you as much as she can. You do have to study for her class, but she also doesn't make you memorize formulas. The only thing I didn't like is how she has us take notes; she has fill in the blanks presentation slides, which made me just look for the blanks rather than taking notes.

Graded by 5 assignments, 3 quizzes, 3 review guides, 3 exams, 6 labs + reports. Savita is so kind, always welcomes questions, and is very accessible outside of class. Exams mirror the review guides, and an outline is given for every exam. Very straightforward grading and always gives amazing feedback. Excel heavy lab reports. Take this prof!!!

Prof. Srinivasa is such a kind, understanding and respectful teacher who embraces what she teaches and care so much about her students. There are very few assignments, and labs aren't terribly long, just Excel-heavy. Overall, an especially nice and flexible teacher; perfect for those working full-time outside of school!

I LOVE her! I had her for 161 as well and it definitely took time to get used to her expectations, but she is so sweet and cares so much about chemistry and the knowledge her students! I can't wait to take her for 163 :)

Dr. Srinivasa is very clear about her grading criteria. The class is structured into weekly quizzes (which are VERY easy), exams (she provides practice exams/reviews), assignments, and lab reports. Very thorough and teaches you alot about laboratory techniques and easily accessible outside of class. Attendance is encouraged but not mandatory. 10/10

Professor Srinivasa is honestly the best professor in the chemistry department at this school. I dont understand why she has such low ratings bc she is genuinely SO understanding and she actually cares about her students. She is always willing to accommodate and extend due dates. If you want to understand chemistry AND pass, take her class!!

She is my favorite chemistry professor. She always encouraged students to ask questions if they were struggling with assignments and her feedback was always helpful. She was being very generous compared to what I heard from other science major students about their professors. Her lecture was also great before the transition to the online format :)
