Comment:
Organic chemistry is a hard class but this professor makes it even harder. Everything he does is refer you to his online videos and don't even get me started on the online assignments. You get about 10 assignments per week, of course with out learning anything and no background on the topic. Don't take this professor.

Comment:
Unclear directions, all of his written directions are so misspelled or incomplete that you can't even understand what he wants. Lectures are slow and useless, he talks to you like you're a child. Lab work is graded negatively. The class is spent mostly online.

Comment:
Not recommended. You need to read and teach yourself all material. Otherwise he will not teach it. Every class if you don't ask questions he will talk about anything that he finds interesting to him. Be ready to be online(every day) even if it's an in class lecture.

Chem 100 was so confusing they way it was taught. Not recommended for those without any Chem. background. An expectation of chem knowledge is exp. so discouraging. Aced it with another professor.

Good with one on one but not good in the classroom. Has a little attitude with students. Chem 100 should not be so hard as an into class.

way to much computer work in this class...it is not an online course. Makes you feel dumb for asking questions. Gives way to much outside assignments besides tests and reading. Definitly dont reccomend taking him.

Good instructor. Makes lecture classes interesting with fun experiments. However; not an easy "A". A lot of info. to learn, and he does collect homework.

Gergens is a great teacher. He has a teaching plan and if you follow along with his lecture and power points you should do great. He explains clearly and nothing is a surprise on the tests. It is a hard class so it is important to keep up with his lecture

Comment:
He seemed passionate about the subject but he grades his tests too technically and they are too long. He also doesn't understand simple questions. He let's his computer grade his tests so you might have a higher grade than you think.No prep for final day

Comment:
a knoww-alot professor who teach lots of useful materials in non-systematic lectures. he gives out PRE-TEST that is very very similar to the real test for us to pratise ahead. however, he takes the labs and reprots extremely seriously.
