About to sign up for chem 2 at NSU, and well, not gonna lie, I'm not the greatest at chemistry. Any recommendations on which prof could make it a bit more manageable for me? Thanks a ton!
I recommend researching faculty members through official channels like your school's website or student portal. There, you can find more about professors' teaching styles and areas of expertise. You can also ask classmates or fellow students who have already taken the course.
However, for a more detailed insight, consider using student-led resources, like the NSU student forums or student Facebook groups. Traditionally, students give honest and straightforward reviews about their experiences with particular instructors there.
A helpful tool that you might also find useful is the Office of Student Affairs. They can provide you with various academic resources, including tutoring and study groups, which can make your chemistry course more manageable no matter the professor.
Remember, however, that an "easy" professor does not necessarily equate to a better learning experience. It can be beneficial to have a rigorous professor who pushes you to fully understand the material. You might find that investing in building a solid foundation in chemistry could be helpful for future courses.
Overall, it's essential to consider what you want out of the class aside from an easy time—improved understanding, preparation for future classes, or perhaps a specific interest in certain chemical processes or principles.
