The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
An A is very reachable because grading is fair, extra credit is common, and exams follow lectures or homework, but students still need to study chemistry.
Both formats support a high Easy A score, while online reviews more often warn that tests still require learning.
Is the course easy?
Chemistry itself can be tricky, but Deming breaks concepts down clearly and makes the material easier to follow.
Online and in-person reviews both praise clear explanations, with in-person reviews giving more examples of lecture structure.
Is attendance flexible?
Lecture is often optional or flexible, but labs, quizzes, exams, and some sections still require attendance.
Both formats include mixed attendance reports, so flexibility depends on section and activity type.
Is this professor recommended?
Students strongly recommend him because he is clear, caring, accessible, and fair while still helping them learn real chemistry.
Online and in-person reviews are both overwhelmingly positive, with only one online review showing hesitation about grading.
