Comment:
This isn't a horrible class..but you do have to work really hard. She isn't the easiest woman to understand but as long as you have a good TA that can explain things you're ok. She also posts the last 4 years' exams/quizzes/workshops which come in handy when studying. She gives a fair amt of extra points too!

OMG. If your taking chem 100 take Adcock. I went to lecture about 4 times total the whole semester. I made a high A. She posts previous test and that basically the same test.That's all I did and made over 3 exams. She makes her exams up to 120. For lab, just find a good group of friends and your set This is by far the easiest class i've taken at ut

It's not a terrible class, but you have to really work to get a good grade. The lectures aren't clear but she uses clickers so you have to go to get participation points. Make sure you get a good TA or are friends with someone who knows what's going on. All the old tests and quizzes are on line which is the key for passing this class. Memorize the

Comment:
these low level chemistry professors are horrible at teaching low level chemistry classes. they have such a good grasp of the concepts that they expect us to, as well. unless you're naturally chemistry inclined, you're gonna have to bust you ass to do well. and if your t.a. is a little**** (like mine was), you'll essentially be self-taught. AVOID.

Comment:
The class is so-so. Early on the class is extremely easy, but the last two chapters completely lost me. Dr. Adcock is a really interesting professor, but she has a tendency to get off-topic or go too fast through important material. I plan on keeping my sanity by not taking the second part of this course.

Her lectures are pointless, but you have to go to get a good participation grade. If you memorize the past test you will do alright, but as far as learning anything from her youre out of luck. Cross your fingers and hope you get a good TA. If you can avoid taking her class, I would suggest it .

Comment:
I took this class because I had to, after being a nurse (ADN) for 5 yrs I thought I would come back to school and get a BSN. I am a perfectionist and want nothing less than a A, I worked by butt off and ended up with a B. I hated every second of this class. She is a horrible teacher, and if you get a bad TA you are screwed.

Do what you can to get another teacher for chem 100 and 110. Yes i made a good final grade but it was only because i memorized previous exams that she posts (which is the key if you get stuck with this one) and i think there was a curve. This person is a horrible teacher...you will learn very little.

Not the most interesting class, but overall pretty easy to pass. She puts all of the material online, including previous tests and quizes and their answers. All you have to do is study those and you will make a great grade.

She is good in my opinion. I mean as long as you have the patience to sit through lecture and take down notes you have to have it's fine. Make sure you go over all the old tests and quizzes because as long as you study those you will do fine. I hate chemistry and still am pulling out an A+ in that class.

THE WORST TEACHER EVER!!! I had her/him for chem 100 it wasn't too bad but chem 110 was the WORST! Dr. Adcock doesn't care about student & puts things on tests that she not only says will not be on the test but also hasn't covered in class AT ALL! I had to teach myself everything. I hated every second of this class & Dr. Adock is not helpful at all

The lectures are useless. There are a lot of grades so you will not fail the class. I failed 2/3 of the tests and still got a B+. Show up for the clicker quizzes in class because they help in the end. Don't miss labs, and study for the quizzes. Pray that you get a good TA.

Lecture is dry and boring. Her PDF notes are okay, but when she lectures sometimes it is hard to follow her. Also, she has very interesting fashion choices that may distract you.

The class is not all that bad... But you have to get a kick ass TA! Dr. Adcock's lectures are completely pointless and confusing!! There's no point in going to them except for the clicker quizzes... The website with the old quizzes and tests helps a lot

This class is not as bad as everyone says it is. GO TO THE WEBSITE!!!! All the old quizzes and exams from the past three years are on there and literally are almost identical to the new ones. Have to go to class because you have a clicker quiz every lecture but it doesnt matter what you get on them (theyre extra credit apparently)
