Reviews of professor Christopher Borman

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Borman is really passionate and he really seems to love teaching. But. He is horrible at it. He reads off slides, adds information that is unclear and unhelpful, and skips over the content that actually matters. His grading is ridiculous and his exams are WAY too hard. Expect to spends hours every day studying, and to still get low marks.

So, I had the BEST prof last quarter for Chemistry 181. I passed with flying colors and really understood the material. I took Dr. B this quarter because it was my only option. He doesn't teach. He goes through the slides the book provides and adds WAY too much information that isn't needed. He is failing his entire class each exam/test.

Borman is a good prof just be prepared to work for your grade. It is not an easy A like new students would expect. However quizzes are really helpful in preparing for tests. He is also willing to work around your schedule to help you understand the material.

various other forms of learning will suite you better then taking this class. In fact if you take him, that is where you will actually learn. If you observe a normal day in the tutor center one will notice 90% of student present are his, because he horrible. Requires you to use a calculator that he doesn't teach you how to use.

Borman is a really great scientist and a really bad teacher. He does not explain things in a way that makes sense and his exams/ quizzes are crazy hard. The class average for most exams is below 50%. Even with tutoring and hours of studying, I am still not able to pass his class. Be prepared to WORK for your grade in this course.

I am horrible at chemistry. Hated every class I've been in, except for Dr. Borman's class. He read off of slides, but he added information that really helped comprehension. He's very passionate about his subject. I'm disappointed he switched with Dr. Sorey halfway through the semester, he was the best chem teacher I've had!
