Reviews of professor Kristina Mack

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Mack is a professor who jumps all over the place and does not explain things clearly. She lectures to the class the full time and you can walk out not knowing what she talked about. She gives the topics of what will be on the tests and then none of them are on it or she makes it very confusing.

All her lecture notes are online so you don't really have to class. Her exams are basically two exams in one. One is multiple choice and the other is written. Most of your grade is based on the homework which helps A LOT and she replaces your lowest exam with the final exam grade. Go to class, the SI sessions and get a tutor if you want to pass.

If I can give any advice at all, it would be DO NOT take this class with her if you dont have to. Especially during the summer! Mack makes it nearly impossible to keep up with the lecture material at such a fast pace over the 8 week course. She taught us a huge portion of final exam material LESS than 24 HOURS before the final. Exams are so HARD.

P. Mack is WONDERFUL. She is the most caring professor I have ever had. She is extremely willing to help students understand material and doesn't make you feel "dumb" when asking questions. Attend lectures, DO THE PRACTICE PROBLEMS in the book, and go to office hours/SI sessions. Don't just study lecture notes. Struggled w/ chem before I had her!

Organic Chemistry is hard no matter who teaches it, but she was the amazing even in a 8wk time frame. Took the class for the 2nd time with her and she made it make a lot of sense. Cares a lot for her students! Do hw and quizzes its easy cushion points and go to office hours she is great at explaining material 1-on-1.

Although attendance isn't mandatory id recommend going because this class can be pretty difficult. Very exam heavy. Lectures can be disorganized so make sure to sit in the front and take notes!
