Dr. Malkawi is AMAZING. His lectures were very clear and really made me understand the material. Lots of material so you do need to study and actually understand to do well. He also really cares about his students and wants them to succeed. I highly recommend him, and I can't wait to take him for more classes in organic chemistry!

Comment:
One thing I liked was that he let us give our input on things and actually listened. He also gives good notes most of the time and provides good study material. Not gonna lie, the tests are hard and they are heavily weighted. He would also tell us one thing and then do something different so communication wasnt always the best.

Attendance isn't mandatory but he pays attention to who doesn't show up. I love Dr. Malkawi but he is confusing sometimes. Definitely doesn't put up with bs excuses for things. Forget about a quiz/miss a deadline: just be honest with him. Form a relationship with him so that he knows you're trustworthy. You can tell he loves o-chem. He's so smart.

To my fellow student who wrote the false comment below: I am in the same class, attendance is optional, there is a textbook, which you my fellow student never used. Instead of making false claims and blaming others, why did you not show up to class, study hard, and seek help when needed? The final was easy multiple choice, online, and open-book.

Everyone hates on Malkawi and I don't get why. He's so respectful and has great communication. He had to teach babychem after teaching ochem for 20+ years which sucked b/c information was taught super fast but it's not complicated. Don't underestimate studying. Barely any homework assignments and just a couple tests. Doesn't care about attendance.

Professor Malkawi is an amazing teacher who explains things super clearly and is always willing to help his students. He is the absolute best! Organic Chemistry does require a lot of effort and hard work, but with studying, SI sessions, office hours, and online homework problems, you will do well in the class.

Organic chemistry has been one of my absolute favorite classes I've had the opportunity to take. I have learned some of the most valuable knowledge that I know I will always carry with me; especially through taking the MCAT and pursuing medical school.

I know that I could not have gained a better understanding and appreciation for organic chemistry if it was not for Dr. Malkawi. He always takes the time to answer questions thoroughly and fully explain organic chemistry concepts in a very effective way that is easy to understand. Dr. Malkawi is an outstanding professor!

He teaches his class and explains things front, back, left, right until you are able to understand the concepts. He makes his expectations very clear with the extent to which you should understand the material. You do have to put a good amount of time into studying and going to SI sessions, or you wont do well. He truly helps along the way!!

Dr. Malkawi is one of the most amazing professors I've ever had. His lectures are so straightforward and easy to follow. He really cares about you as a learner and I learned so much. He is fantastic. If someone didn't like the class they definitely didn't take the learning process upon themselves enough and seriously.

Not a very good teacher. He doesnt teach as much as he spews information at you hoping something sticks. Makes no effort to email students when he uploads assignments or worksheets. Most students would fail or have a c in his class if he didnt give so much extra credit. Do yourself a favor and take organic with someone else or at another uni.

Not a very good teacher. Gives long lectures that have almost no correlation to the tests. He will spend the whole lecture teaching about one simple detail instead of covering the whole chapter. The only way to get a good grade in this class is to read and teach yourself. Oh, and the final test, its a trap; he purposely made the test super hard.
