Reviews of professor Nicole Carbonaro

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
As long as you show up to class and do the in class problems you will do fine. There are quizzes every week and very easy two sentences class wrappers  but she drops your lowest 3 of each. The homework is graded on completion and I used it to practice before the quizzes. She also have office hours for extra help. Use your resources! Grade Now: 99%

She was so sweet and really tried to learn her student's name. She was helpful and often gave you some answers for the worksheet during prelab lectures, which was very helpful. She expresses that she wants you to learn and that instead, you put the wrong answers and you guys talk through the worksheets together as a class.

I am a pre-nursing major and need chem121 for a it and I was worried about chemistry but she makes it super easy and understandable. Several homework, lots of extra credit opportunities. Quizzes every week but drops lowest 3. Sets you up for success, lays out quiz content directly. Final. I recommend printing all her in class problems. Amazing!

Professor Carbonaro was a great professor for Chem lecture. She is super nice and takes the time to learn all her students' names and wears a microphone so everyone can hear. The lecture material was pretty hard, I recommend printing out the slides before class and writing your notes on them as she talks. The quizzes were every week.

Overall, regarding the lectures they are very dense but as long as you come to class and participate you will be okay. Make sure to spend time effectively studying and going over problems/concepts as you will get quizzed every week and quizzes are 60% of your grade. Professor calls on the same students typically to answer, HURRY AND ANSWER!

Dr. Carbonaro is the best professor I have had at Towson, she takes time to learn student's names and wants all of her students to do well. Chemistry is a hard course but she explains exactly what you will need to know for each weekly quiz and is always willing to meet during office hours. If you have the chance to take 121 with her, do it!!
