Reviews of professor Christopher DeSantis

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I really liked him, I had already taken AP chem in high school so i was very familiar with the content of the class. I did not love the way he structured the class but his lectures and notes were good. Quizzes every friday. He does take attendance, but its not worth much of your grade. If you're late he doesn't care. Pretty cool guy.

For a new professor, Dr. DeSantis was really knowledgeable on this subject and he taught it well. He wrote all his notes on the board and used examples. If youre stuck or confused, you can always ask him to slow down or explain something again. He assigned online homework and had quizzes or exams every Friday. Hes a nice guy and willing to help.

The class last the entire blocked hours (3.5 hours). You will definitely be working in a pressured environment. If you can' handle the speed and weekly (GRADED) pre-lab questions, notebook set up, abstract - then this is not the course or professor to take. He is very thorough and available for office hours. Replies to emails very fast.

I took him for both chem I and Lab. In lecture there is a quiz every week, but the lowest couple get dropped. Very long lectures, he moves fast but is always willing to slow down if asked. In lab, the prelab is a must to enter but labs are well explained and he will help with whatever you need. Open to office hours, must study to do well
