The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Students repeatedly say poor grades are hard to get because he gives clear exam targets, extra credit, and dropped scores.
All evidence is from in-person reviews, with no online reviews available.
Is the course easy?
Chemistry can be conceptually hard and sometimes fast-paced, but he explains it clearly enough for beginners.
Only in-person reviews discuss difficulty, and they separate hard chemistry content from his clear teaching.
Is attendance flexible?
Attendance is not described as strictly mandatory, but many reviews say showing up and following reviews is central to doing well.
In-person reviews make attendance useful and grade-relevant; there is no online evidence.
Is this professor recommended?
Students overwhelmingly recommend him because he is clear, fair, organized, and supportive.
The recommendation signal is entirely from in-person reviews.
