Reviews of professor Radhika Reddy Nareddy

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Nareddy has a bad reputation but probably mainly due to her fast accent but you get used to it. She doesn't like to answer questions in class but she is a lot more willing and nice during her office hours. One thing I loved was she writes her own notes and teaches through examples. Orgo is a hard class so you have to be willing to really work

Dr. Nareddy is my least favorite teacher here. Since the online transition, she's been very rude to students and being a headass honestly. She's very lecture heavy and her tests are harder than normal lecture material. The only saving grace is the TAs, but the good one is graduating so rip. Go to SI every time bc he's been the SI for 5 semesters.

Took Nareddy for Organic Chemistry 1 and 2. She doesnt teach off powerpoint slides, rather she goes through and writes down the notes with you. Does a ton of examples in class so you really get to learn the material. Important for you to show up to class and work hard, but honestly all classes at this point are like that. Exams are straight foward.

She explains every topic that will be tested in detail. The final exam is cumulative. I had to put in hours of extra work, but getting an A is possible.

In my opinion, Dr. Nareddy is the best orgo professor at USC. Her lectures are long, and she uses all of the time in the period. Her method of teaching is doing lots of examples of reactions, which is really helpful. The exams are not that hard if you do the textbook problems and worksheets she assigns. Not an easy A, but definitely not impossible.
