Reviews of professor Lucas Beagle

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
In summary, this man is the worst professor at UD. He shows no interest in his students success and gives unrealistic exams based on horrible lectures. You can put in hours of effort but it still won't pay off. The chem department won't allow him to teach gen chem anymore, avoid him at all costs, he ruined my GPA.

Dr. Beagle is a good chemistry professor. I have heard that he used to be rude, but now he is personable and tries to make jokes in class. He knows the topic can be boring at points and tries to make it as interesting as possible. Tests and quizzes are online so it definitely helps my grade out a lot.

You are simply going to have to work extremely hard to do well in his class. He told one of the lab instructors that he writes graduate level tests.

Chemistry is tough no matter what, but this guy in general is pretty heartless. He basically just rips the book and puts it on slides, the examples he does with a smart board in class so you can't look back at the slides. Has pre-work that starts 48 hours before and post work due in 48 hours, but forgets to post until later half the time.

Honestly, Dr. Beagle is a great guy who is really knowledgeable in the sciences and such. If there was a class called "have a beer with Beagle and discuss science," I would pass with flying colors. Truthfully, he is a very bad teacher in a class of extreme pressures. He expects you to practice 3+ hours a day for hard tests. God help his students.

He didn't teach until halfway through the semester when he began trying to teach. All the homework were through MHConnect, which doesn't work half the time. Often he would say he'd assign something then do it a week or two later, or assign stuff and never say a word in class. His tests were not reflective of the Department final. Don't take him.

The class is PASSABLE (C-) as long as you put around 3 hours of studying every other day (WHICH SHOULD BE EVERYDAY) straight out of the book. The tests are 2 short answer questions worth 15 points and mostly multiple choice of around 4 points a piece. NO PARTIAL CREDIT for multiple choice which sucks...(RIP GPA)

Beagle is an extremely difficult professor to have, although it doesn't get much better in UD's chem department. His lectures are boring, and don't correlate well to the materials on the test. The tests are online, so if you are good at looking things up on the fly, your grade won't be too low. Still, below mediocre at best.

Dr. Beagle isnt a terrible professor, the lectures are incredibly boring but would any chem lecture. There is a lot of online homework but it correlates really well to the exams since they were also online and putting in the work on those and attending lectures even if not paying attention lead me to success fairly easily. He isnt impossible.
