Reviews of professor Pedro Bueno

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Really loves Dr. Bueno's lecture. took it 8am but class was entertaining enough that it's easy to stay awake. He is always accessible outside of class and will go over your tests if you have questions. Tells good jokes in lectures. Sometimes he gets side-tracked and it can be hard to follow- but he acknowledges this and wants everyone to learn

Very nice person, so-so teacher. Alternately goes much too slowly and far too quickly through material and exams are much harder than practice material.

Amazing teacher. Do study from homeworks, read the text, attemd GSS sessions every so often, and ask questions after class. Feel free to ask him any chem related question after class. Also, he is very funny, his bonus questions tend to be easy. Just give it 80% of effort and you should have an A.

Not a good professor. Doesnt teach you anything and does not prepare you for tests at all.

nicest guy you'll meet and super accessible outside of class (go ask questions-i got 10 points back per exam bc he realized graders made mistakes!) that said, his exams are WAY harder than the practice exams, he makes multiple mistakes in lecture, and he is not the best lecturer. also, the class only had a 2% curve at the end when he promised 5%.

Dr. Bueno is the nicest and worst professor I have ever had. Yes you read that correctly. He cares and lot and is almost always available outside of class, however, he is really unorganized and doesn't teach material well. Unless you are someone who can teach themselves well from the textbook I would not suggest taking his class.

Bueno is so messy and teaches rlly slow for the first two exams and crams everything for the third midterm which rlly sucks. Midterms don't rlly reflect the study guides and we had to teach ourselves for lab bc he was soOoO BEHIND. He's a funny guy but Koppel is better. Dr. Bueno is no bueno.

I wish going in (I'm not into chemistry whatsoever) to really use the textbook more than I should've throughout the course. Reading the textbook really helped me bring my grade up on the final, especially since the midterms were really hard. Also, he doesn't release grade cutoffs for the overall curve, so you have to guess at the end of the year.

Lecture is so boring and he goes so slowly that going to lecture is useless. Tests are pretty straightforward, but they are often graded wrong like I got back 10% because he made mistakes grading the exam and there were piles of final exams that had to be regraded too because they were graded wrong in the first place.

I love Dr. Bueno! He is super nice and approachable and he'll always manage to crack a few jokes during class. His lectures were helpful, and I believe he is a very good professor for being new. Everyone's grades got curved a lot, because so many people did bad on the first and third exams.
