She doesn't know how to teach the information she run the lecture quickly so it makes it harder to grasp the Info . She is nice and all but not a good teacher

She does not know how to teach which is frustrating. Her exams does not replicate what we cover in class. The materials we spend excessive amounts of time on in class will not be the main focus on the exam. Also, on her exams, she likes to put lots of question on materials we barley covered in class.

Nice lady, horrible professor. Teaching method is more review than teaching. Difficult to get in touch with. Speeds through lecture and material. Tests are on what is reviewed in lecture. Study class notes / practice test to do well. Teach yourself everything. Save your time and take the class elsewhere or with a different professor.

The best word to describe this professor is vague. She speeds through materials and is condescending and short in explanations. The homework, lectures, and textbook are three different platforms with different and often conflicting information, and the test and quizzes while being vague and poorly worded often barely pertain to class materials.

If your GPA is important to you do not take this class with this professor! Beyond the atrocious structure and teaching, expect difficult tests with no relevance to class materials, low class averages and quizzes with 3 possible points worth a decent chunk of your grade. You will spend more time in this class than any other and it won't matter. 0/5

She is insulting to students who ask questions, gets off topic often, and is unclear in her explanations. She expects you to understand everything the first time and allows for no learning curve. The materials are not presented well often only in one format that is either unclear or incomplete. Over all she creates a toxic learning environment.

Did not accommodate during COVID at all. DO. NOT. TAKE. HER. She laughs when students ask questions. I'll leave it at that. Save yourself the time.

Dr. Ormond is very tough. Not the kindest or the most understanding. Definitely knows her stuff though. Would not recommend to anyone who learns slow. She goes SO fast and her exams are long.

VERY VERY VERY TOUGH GRADER

Gives no partial credit whatsoever. Such a stickler

If you're struggling, she won't help you out one bit

Takes forever to answer a single email and to give back exams. Likely you'll go into an exam with no idea what you got on the last one. She goes through exam material and slides trying to cram in multiple lessons in the last few seconds of class. Don't miss a single word because the tiniest thing will show up on a quiz and exam.

Tests are not fair. They are HARD

It's unfair to report negative reviews just cause you don't like them. People can have opinions and different experiences than you. She's mean and failed us as a professor. I went to every class and still got an F. She ignored me in office hours just cause she didn't like me

She got rid of retakes for all her classes just cause of something one person did. She also got tougher and silenced people who shared their experiences. Cause she complained about reviews on here and her favorite students reported them. I never seen a professor like her who get mad cause they received reviews they didn't like

I didn't expect to be spoon fed but I needed support and she didn't give me any. My gpa went down so much after getting F in this class. She shows no mercy and has favorites who give positive comments here to make her seem kind she's not

Everyone complains about her but is too scared to post about her cause she read a speech to scare us from posting when she didn't like the comments on here

She makes a very toxic learning environment and exams are too long. Too many questions, too little time. Practice exams are nothing like in class exams. Likely you will get 100 on practice exam and less than 50 on actual exam

I went to her office hours for support with exam correction and she laughed at me. I know she can't give me answers but it would be nice if she didn't laugh at students always and make them feel dumb because she enjoy it

She stopped doing test corrections and exam retakes. She also started going faster in class and said we can handle it. People learn at differing speeds and she didn't care. She expected everyone to just keep up. She enjoyed torturing people this semester. We don't need educators who want to see students end up with Fs instead of As and Bs

People left the postbac program because they were traumatized by her

My gpa went from a 3.0 to a 2.66 cause I got an F in her class. She doesn't care about student success and won't help if you're struggling. She enjoys seeing struggling

If you are taking Organic 2 for dental or med school, don't. I would recommend taking it at NC State or another college to save your gpa. A F will really bring you down a lot more than you think

She didn't offer partial credit and she ignored people she didn't like in office hours. She's very tough and inconsiderate. She also offers no emotion or empathy

She canceled office hours a lot second semester and stopped responding to emails

She's pretty rude and unlikable. She lets opinions get in the way of teaching which isn't good. Everyone should have the same access to education!

I only took her once and now I understand why people would leave the postbacc program after having her. She's really mean and sassy. She makes students uncomfortable and creates a toxic learning environment that doesn't leave room for questions

She often makes offensive comments and also embarrasses students thinking she is being funny and better than everyone. Asking questions matters in orgo and office hours, but she makes students scared to participate due to the way she mortifies students. I hope I don't have to take her ever again

Kleins is a billion times easier than the actual exams. It only teaches the basic concepts. But her actual exams test much more than that which is why people are never prepared for actual exams. Her practice problems are also nothing like her actual exams. She isn't setting students up for success. She's doing the exact opposite.

I tried a lot to understand this class but I'm unable to perform well in exams because we aren't taught the concepts well. RMP reviews are more important to her than our need for knowledge. How am I expected to perform well in exams and pre-lab quizzes if I am not taught well.

She humiliates students, shuts down questions with sarcasm, and belittles people in front of the class. She doesn't explain concepts clearly and blames students for her own lack of clarity! The class feels toxic, hostile, and discouraging every day. Even after doing Kleins and all practice problems, I'm struggling and she only cares about her RMP.

We were promised MCAT-style teaching this year fall in her postbac class, but am not getting it. I am disappointed as I'm unable to do well in MCAT. She doesn't help students understand chemistry concepts, which is unfortunate. I am struggling and have no help. Meredith's postbac promises you a lot but leaves you with absolutely nothing.

Students must be told before joining the program about what they must expect from a fast paced course. Students aren't told that exams are taken the very next day after a concept is taught. Concept is incompletely taught. How do u expect students to do well on tests? Its wrong but if a student isn't taught well he will obviously do poorly and copy

Difficult exams. Not surprised that this class is my lowest midterm grade. There's no way to succeed. Even after doing Klein and practice problems, my grade is not budging from a C

My lowest midterm grade because she offers no help and gives no chances to improve your grade or understanding of the material

Group assignments are set up for people with friends only. If you don't know anyone in the class and you're an introvert, good luck because the setup of this classroom won't let you succeed. You'll sit alone struggling with the work if you have no friends. People with friends will work in groups of 8-10 in front of you. Prof doesn't care or help

Rude and unfair

She is setting a wrong example by instilling fear in students' minds by telling them that she would sabotage a student's career through her connections with medical schools in NC. I had to listen to this too and I will say this is awfully unethical and wrong of her to do. Shame on Meredith postbac program.

I'm currently a D1 and wanted to come on here and say Dr. Ormond is the least understanding or supportive professor. She hated me and didn't want me to get into dental school but I did against all odds, even when she tried to hurt my application chances. She's manipulative and petty with an uncontrolled anger problem

She doesn't care if you understand or not. It's a chain reaction - Students' understanding of the concepts is not ensured by the instructor- do bad/fail the course- retake the course- postbac program makes 2X the money for each course. So it benefits their pockets. She only cares about her salary. She can't care less about where students end up.

I study and don't come on this website daily but the person below me was nasty for no reason :) so no, studying doesn't make up for her inability to teach! Stop with the fake smileys and passive aggressiveness. Enroll in therapy instead of being a defense attorney for professors. Btw you graduated. So focus on applications instead of your past!

STOP WRITING IN ALL CAPS AND BEING A PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE SNARK!! AND STOP LIVING IN YOUR PAST WHEN YOU ARE NOT IN HER CLASS CURRENTLY AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SHE'S LIKE RIGHT NOW!!! Maybe then you'll do better in life and actually get into dental or med school instead of being a failure ;)

Oh look, it's the post baccs from last year coming on here to defend their professors because they don't have any interviews to prepare for (you aren't getting into any school, so focus on that instead of RMP)

Very wicked twisted woman

She's a very racist and biased individual with anger issues and pettiness

Now that exams are officially over, I can confirm she's the worst and meanest professor ever. The good reviews are posted by her students from last year. She's makes people's lives miserable!!!! I hope I never see her again

Ignore the positive reviews!!! Only take her if you want an F to leave a dent in your applications

She doesn't round grades and threatens students when they ask for recommendations because she wants them to feel like they deserve nothing good

It's probably easier to get into a PhD at Harvard than it is to make this professor happy. No matter how kind you are, she won't like you if she doesn't want to. She picks and chooses who she's nice to which isn't fair at all. I've cried so much this semester and couldn't be more thankful to Jesus that the semester is over!!! Hallelujah

I experienced DISCRIMINATION and UNEQUAL treatment from her and Dr. Aghoram. The professors clearly FAVOR certain students, and it shows in their mentorship. Everyone deserves fair, respectful treatment!!

She's the worst professor in the history of professors

All the honest reviews underneath reflect real student experiences. However, it's strange that when criticism appears, it's often met with defensive replies and self-praises, questioning students, instead of accountability.
