Reviews of professor Yasin Elshorbany

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Supportive and caring. His lectures may be a little confusing at first, but his office hours and the practice problems he offers make up for it. His tests are super fair and he's always rooting for us.

While I maintained a good grade throughout the semester, I was not challenged at all. This is concerning because I took this class as a medical school prerequisite, and I need to understand the material well. Glad I got an A, but I am upset that I didn't actually learn anything in this class. I will have to relearn everything for the MCAT.

OMG Elshorbany is literally the best professor you can take! He cares so much about his students. During this past semester he took an entire chapter off of an exam because the class was struggling to learn the material and he wanted to take time to help us learn. 1 Exam, quiz, and hw drop. You are exempt from the final if you have a 90 average!

Dr. Elshorbany is the best thing that has every happened to orgo. I was so scared to take this class but he made all my worries go away. He is so incredibly kind and genuinely wants the best for his students. Show up to class and pay attention to the quizzes and days that are for review. Take him, you wont regret it, the drive is 100% worth it

Although he does not give many assignments, weekly you do have a homework assignment 10 questions and a quiz 10 questions. Make sure you know how to do them because he takes questions similar to them for the tests. He wants to see his students succeed in a tough class and will alter his teacher to do that. He wants to make sure you understand orgo

This man is amazing! He made the final exam optional this semester, dropped 1 of the 4 in-term exams, so the three exams were just 57% of the grade, and he offered extra credit. His exams are all multiple choice, and if you review the quizzes, tophat, and go to his exam reviews, you will do well on the exams. He is a dream come true for Orgo.

Hardheaded man, exams are harder than in the past, hard to understand in lectures, and if u ask for clarification he is not much help. he won't draw out mechanisms but rather explain with words than draw them. (hard to understand given its orgo) got lucky and convinced him to make final optional. not an easy A even if you memorize problems.

Dr. E is the best professor. The final grade consists of 4 exams one gets dropped and the final which we convinced him to make optional. Not super assignment-heavy and an easy A if you put the work in. The class is still organic chemistry so don't take it lightly but by taking it with him you are almost guaranteed a good grade.
