Reviews of professor Lauren (Rumberger) Kerrigan

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This is the best online course I have taken! She puts a lot of time into creating a manageable schedule with paced due dates for a mix of activities, including watching pre-recorded lectures, problem sets, quizzes, exams, discussion posts, and labs. She offers a good variety of ways to earn points in the course, and provides clear feedback.

I really loved this course! Mrs. Kerrigan is a doll and an amazing teacher. You will have to work to pass this class though. Meaning youll have to study 6-10 hours outside of class a week. Time management will be key. She tells you exactly what she expects and wants from you so if you do that youll easily pass with an A!

Tests aren't online; you have to drive to Newtown Campus. Tests are 70% of grade. Tests are not open note studying 25 hours a week. Lab you work from home which costs 300 dollars, can take hours to complete. You are required to get 60% and/or cannot submit late more than 3 lab assignments. Open notes are 30% of grade. I hope I never take her again!

Had her for CHEM121 and CHEM100 both hybrid. 

She is very personable, is open to helping you a lot outside class, gives extra credit, and makes topics easy to understand. 

Unsure why some people claim she is a tough grader, if anything she's lenient with partial credit. Obviously if you have wrong sig figs its a deduction.... that's basic chem.

Professor Kerrigan is one of the best teachers I have had at bccc so far. She makes sure everyone understands what is being thought and provides many different ways to get more help if needed. lectures are very good, she provides videos on extra examples to review at home. Her grading does make sense and is reasonable, and provides extra credit.
