Comment:
though test heavy, his exams are completely fair. Read the book and PRACTICE the problems, it'll save you. Dr. K is hilarious, caring, and will always work with you if you need help with anything. he tries to be as accessible as possible which is tough because he's so busy. Organic is tough enough, and he LISTENS to his students and slows the pace.

Comment:
a great professor, and chem is difficult and confusing enough as it is so he doesn't try to trick you. Exams are difficult, but if you do the practice problems in the book you'll be fine. Group exams were very helpful, and he is very accommodating which is extremely nice of him. He always has review sessions so attend those. I definitely recommend

Comment:
Dr. Krumpe makes organic chemistry somewhat fun. His lectures keep you on your toes and involved. He is great about giving clear grading criteria, thoroughly going over all material, and he teaches chemistry EXTREMELY well. You can tell he is very intelligent. The only downside to taking Krumpe's classes is that he is a dean so he is always busy.

Flies through the info. Talks about random stuff and makes weird comparisons. Definitely knows his stuff, super smart. If you enjoy chemistry and have a knack for it, then Krumpe will probably be a great teacher for you. I have a hard time with Chem and felt that he moved very quickly, you will spend a lot of time outside of class working.

Comment:
I had taken Gen. Chem. 1&2 at a community college... So I was super afraid going into this class. This stuff mainly takes a lot of practice (time). Krumpe is awesome at using METAPHORS and making class a light hearted environment. Dont take a lot of other hrs during the semester, and you will do well in his class. He is def one of my favorites <3

Krumpe is a wonderful professor and really knows his chemistry, he tries to dumb it down to an easier level and it usually works but it's a very hard subject to learn. He will work with you to his fullest extent; go to the SI sessions, go to class and take notes. The tests are hard but it was what was covered in lecture.

Dr. Krumpe knows his chemistry. It is not an easy subject to learn, or to teach I imagine, but he is fair! He is always willing to work with the class on deadlines and is receptive to comments/questions. Make no mistake, his tests are HARD! But if you show up, do your work, and try hard, you'll be fine.

Dr. Krumpe is an amazing professor! This is a very tough class and he makes it completely manageable. Catalog your reactions early and it will come in handy during the semester. If you are having a problem, go talk to him. Krumpe honestly cares about his students and is willing to come in on weekends to help with supplemental lectures. Take him

He is a very helpful guy! He is always willing to meet with students outside of class and help them understand. He takes notice of who is in class daily and pays attention. Do the problems in the back of the book and you'll do fine.

Comment:
Nice guy, really tries to help. But he teaches so far above most student's level of understanding, his "help" is usually in the form of curving test scores. I did learn a lot from his class but it was mostly from outside help sessions and independent study.

Dr. Krumpe is an amazing professor! Organic Chemistry is a hard subject and it takes a great deal of effort to achieve an "A". If you have an issue talk to him and he will help. He will help you out as much as you help yourself out.

Claims that "the material is hard enough, I'm not going to try and trick you with test questions," and then goes and does exactly that, will test on things never covered in class. Does not explain things, just barrels through the material and tells dumb stories.

uses metaphors to explain complex organic concepts, genuinely concerned about his students comprehension of the material

Does not explain material well, or explains material that you don't need to know in that class. if you don't know your chemisty, do no take krumpe

He doesn't seem to know the difference between what we should know to understand the material and what is chemistry... he expects us to remember everything he says, even stuff from classes we didn't take with him... Our faults are evidence of our stupidity, his faults are just funny to him... News flash: none of us have been to grad school!!!

Talks to each of his students as if we're Chem majors. Impossible to keep up with, curbs his tests, is much better in lab than in lecture. HORRIBLE in lecture.

Dr. Krumpe sometimes doesn't make sense, but he is really approachable. Seriously. Even if you are intimidated by him, just go up and ask him a question! He gave our class outside help sessions before tests (even though he has two small kids). He is busy, though, so finding him may be difficult but he is VERY helpful if you ask!

Comment:
This school takes pride in teaching some of the most difficult chemisty classes in the state. If you can take chem anywhere else, do it! Krumpe moves mach5 thru the course material. He gives great real life examples and analogies to make it easier-but it doesn't. He's very helpful if you can find him, or get in line outside his office.
