Angie is a great teacher. Super helpful. Inspired me to be a CHM minor.

actually teaches chem which is a nice change for a chemistry prof. people who complain probably sit in the back and talk the entire class period annoying everyone who is actually there to learn. She could have been more lenient with the final. good prof

Chemistry is not an easy class whoever you have, but Angie does a great job. She rushes through some material, but she has to because the course covers so much. Just practice the calculations a lot, go to class, do the homework/quizes (online) and ask her questions when needed. She responds almost immediately to emails or go to office hours.

She's very helpful if you need to make up an exam and will talk you through anything you might have a question about.

If you like to keep your attendance to a minimum, take her - just make it to the daily quizzes, and then you can leave. She posts everything you need to know online, will let you makeup daily quizzes and exams with prior notice. Study the online notes and the online homework. This was what I did, I got a C.

Will lecture on easy stuff and expect you to learn the hard stuff on your own. Lots of quizes and homework that will help get your grade up.

Nice teacher, but goes really fast. Expects you to understand things first time around. Class seems hard during lecture, but puts most the easy stuff on the tests which are only 25 multiple choice questins. Go to pre-lab or else lab will just be a blur as to what you're supposed to do

I'm in her CHM 105 class at MMCC and I really like her. She is very nice and I think the class is very easy. If you print off the notes and keep up during class, this class is a breeze. I would definately suggest her if you have to take chemisty.

She was pretty cool. Sometimes had some lame jokes, but thats ok. She doesn't take attendance but you will get screwed if you miss a few, the material is discussed and done pretty quickly. The labs are really easy though. Lectures are pretty boring most of the time, but stick with it.

Had Angie for 131/132. same exact class structure. She's implamenting scraqtch off inclass quises that are easy to cheat on if you have a friend next to you! Goes too fast with material but there's no way around that. 50 mins for a 25 Q exam is insane and should be changed. Gives pract probs to help study but key is posted in school.would recomend

I really liked her as a professor. You have to go to class every day or you'll be confused about the material, but if you go there is no reason you shouldn't get a good grade. She is willing to help if you ask her. I would recommend taking her for 131!

Not convinced that she likes her job. Lack of any enthusiasm, and desperately wanted to get though her sections in the alloted 50 minutes.

great notes.

She's a really good teacher. If you go to class and take notes you should be alright! The only thing that I didn't like was that the entire grade in the class is based off of your exams only... Not too hard of a class though! She is very nice.

Angie is a great teacher. Go to class, take notes, and you will do great in the class! Your grade is based off of 5 tests and a final, so it is important to do good on the tests. Although, if you study you will be perfectly fine.

Always willing to help any way she could and was very understanding! She was a very nice teacher and trys to find ways to make it more interesting. I was worried to take CHM but she made it easy to learn. Test are multiple choice.

I really liked Angie and would definitely recommend her for chem! Her lectures are easy to follow/understand and as long as you go to class and take notes, you should get a good grade. Lab is VERY easy and she gives a lot of online homework worth a ton of points.

She's a nice teacher and really wants you to suceed, as long as you come to class, take good notes you'll do good on her tests. BUT she doesnt teach whats on OWL, because whats on OWL is harder than her tests and it takes forever to do OWL. I would take it with her.

Wonderful teacher! One of the best I've ever had. The homework system sucks, but it's the same in every chem class so take it with her. She is very, helpful and makes the information very clear. Exams are very, very similar to the study guide. Loved her!

She is one of my favorite professors at CMU. She explains the material well, and is willing to help you succeed. Also notes are organized and easy to understand. Go to class and you will do well.

She is one of my favorite professors at CMU. She explains the material well, and is willing to help you succeed. Also notes are organized and easy to understand. Go to class and do the Owl assignments you will do well.

Angie is an awesome professor. She teaches the material very well and is always offering her help to students. Her tests are a little hard but not impossible and she curves the final. She is probably one of my favorite teachers so far!

Excellent professor. She teaches using visual aids that make things clear. She is very nice and helpful....can answer any question you ask in understandable language....she is great!!

McGuirk does a great job with helping students. She does push a lot in a little amount of time, but you have to realize that is not her choice. She is always willing to help if you have any questions. Tutors are available, along with SI instructors! Exams are not too difficult, and the final is curved.

She is a good teacher for the basic Chemistry classes. She is pretty helpful but it's not an easy subject.

Angie is a great professor to have for Chemistry!! She's clear, direct, and is passionate about her subject. Lecture is very easy to follow, and she provides plenty of examples. Although attendance isn't mandatory, it's good to attend as much as possible as all the info is important for keeping up.

She was very clear with her lectures and went over everything needed for the exams. Overall, exams were easy and you could miss class and still be okay. Liked her class very much, but I don't reccomend taking it a 8am

Angela was a great teacher. As long as you showed up for class and paid attention, your grade would reflect that. She covered everything on tests in the notes. I hate chemistry and still did well. I would highly recommend this teacher.

Angie is an incredible teacher! Unlike most teachers at CMU, you can tell she is extremely passionate about chemistry. She makes the lectures interesting, fun, and interactive. I would definitely take a course with her again if given the opportunity.

She is one of the best professors I have ever had. She is very clear with what she is teaching and she writes down notes for you throughout the class and has examples to help follow along as well. I recommend taking her.

I loved this professor! She knew me by my name even when I didn't attend office hours. Class is really difficult if you don't know chemistry well and tests are hard, but she is always available after class and through email. VERY HELPFUL TEACHER. I love her and recommend her to everyone taking this class.

If you aren't familiar with chemistry this class will be very hard. For me this class was basically like my high school chem class. She is very helpful and you don't really need the book just the OWL code. OWL is horrible by the way.

She is a great chem prof! She breaks things down very simply and everything that is went over in class is on the tests. If you go to the lectures and keep up with your homework the class can be passed easily. I feel like a lot of people skip or don't study and then blame the teacher for their bad grades (a lot of freshman in the class).

She is, in general, a good professor. Her lectures are not the clearest, but if you attend SI sessions and get one-on-one time, you will be fine. She enjoys teaching, but, as this is a lecture class, is lecture based. Remember that this is a hard course, so get ready to work regardless of who you have.

She goes over a lot of examples in class, but it doesn't really help for the exam. Her exams are way harder than the examples we go over in class. 25 questions with 1 bonus question. The exams are out of 100 so basically each question is worth 4 points. good luck. Don't miss class, you get points for participation in mastering chem during lecture.

Good class with a few tests that require study hours. She teaches well though and goes over the types of problems well. She offers some extra credit but not much. Do the practice tests because they are really good and helpful as a test run so take them.

I had Angie for 131 and hated the class because of active learning. She was the only open lecture class this semester so I took her again and gained back a lot of respect. She is a good teacher but the class is difficult. Do all the extra credit in the beginning of the semester it is a life saver and gives you over 100% for a test grade.

Chem is difficult no matter what, she makes lots of points available in homework and attendance points everyday and alot of extra credit. She does a really good job of trying to explain things the best she can & is really helpful & nice. She's super willing to help. Exams are hard and she doesn't curve. But she curves the final. Take her for 132

McGuirk is the best. I am terrible at chemistry but she made it manageable. The course itself is set up very good for students who put in the effort. Mcguirk is very down to earth and relates well to the plights of students. I wish i could take her for Organic Chemistry next year :(

I took McGuirk over the summer and it wasn't bad. 16 weeks crammed into 6 is tough, but worth it. She taught you exactly what you needed to know for the exams & was very available to her students. I'm pretty sure our overall grades were curved because my 91 was an A. The ACS final is awful, which is expected. Gen chem is boring, in general.

Good teacher, always super positive and fun to be around. The class was a lot of work for a 100 level class though and kept me crazy busy all semester.

Very good professor

Compared to other general chemistry teachers, she's incredible. Lectures are filled with examples based off what the homework will look like. CHM 131 and 132 are not easy classes so be ready for a challenge. Overall if you have to take CHM 131 or 132, take it with Angela.

She is a very nice professor who respects her students. Make sure you do the extra credit at the beginning of the semester, this will help you get an A. Exams are very easy and are EXACTLY like the practice tests she gives before the exam. Do the labs, homework, and "learning catalytics", you are guarenteed at least a B.

McGuirk is a good professor for CHM 132. She gives in class worksheets to give examples of concepts (they aren't for credit) and has many opportunities to earn points besides the exams.

you do worksheets in class that aren't for credit but it REALLY helps you learn, you get points for going to class, you have mastering chem homework(not a lot) but a lot of it is on google, and she gives you multiple extra credit opportunities. She's very nice and is a good teacher! If you go to office hours, she will definitely help you!

If you turn in all the work on time and take good notes in class, you will pass easily. But you have to actually go to class because there is something to turn in everyday .

Angie was an amazing professor for me and was really helpful. Chem is hard to learn but she gives out tons of worksheets with examples and goes through them with you in class. You can earn extra credit on every masteringchemistry homework assignment and there are plenty of resources for studying when it comes time for the exam.

Angie was amazing! She gives you everything you need to pass the class with at least a B if you put in a little bit of effort. There are a ton of practice problems online for you to do which really help with the exams. Anybody who thinks her class is hard has not had a challenging teacher yet so I wouldn't listen to them.

Angie is an awesome teacher. I would take her again in a heartbeat for another class. Her lecture is always early in the morning, but totally worth it. Gives tons of extra credit in quizzes & on MasteringChemistry so make sure you do it. Worksheets are done in class, not for credit, but are SUPER helpful. Always answers questions & is very helpful.

I had Tomasik for 131 and McGuirk for 132, SHE WAS SO MUCH BETTER! I didn't have her for active learning but if you try in the class you will do well, even if you are not good at chemistry! It is normally an 8AM but it is worth it. She is very sweet and her tests are straightforward! She saves them so you can see what mistakes you actually made.

I took chm 131 two times at central. My second time was with Angie, and she made it sooo much easier than my first time around. I also took 132 with her as well. She gives a lot of examples to help make concepts clear. Also provides practice tests and extra worksheet examples as well! Very helpful professor!

This class is SO boring. It consisted of a ton of homework (online and worksheets), lectures, small labs, and four exams. However, it was an easy A. I got a C on an exam and got a 116% in the class. She offers extra credit at the end of the semester and going to class also gets you extra credit. She also drops your two lowest lab scores.

McGuirk is a great professor! She is clear with her expectations/grading/homework and she has the same set up every week, so you know what to expect. She explains things very well. Exams are fairly easy if you do the homework, take notes, and study. I like the way she teaches. I'm taking her again this semester. Also, very easy to reach out to

Angie is an awesome person very helpful, but she can be a little frustrating with the way she presents material in lecture vs what is one the homework and exams, google is your friend!

I took chem in highschool, i found this class to be quite easy the way Angie taught it, i even skipped class 13 times, only reason i did not get a solid A was due to the adaptive follow up assignments i never did, im currently in her 132 class with an A.

Explains the material well. Easy A if you have taken a chemistry course before. Participation points at almost every lecture by answering two or three questions on your laptops. Book not required unless you think you will struggle

Super great professor. Offers so many online resources and practice problems for each chapter. Really helped me improve in chemistry.

I loved Angie! I took Tomasik for CHM131, but liked Angie's teaching style a lot more. She puts all of her notes on Prezi, so if you ever miss class, you can catch up on what you missed. She has an early 8am lecture, but it's worth it. Go to class to get in-class participation points, study regularly, & you should definitely be able to get an A.

Angie is an AMAZING person. She does talk to students almost like elementary school, but she is super caring and gives extra credit. The class itself is hard, and you do have to study. Although she's great, you still have to put in the work to get a decent grade. If you struggle with science, you will have to study for this class.

I love McGuirk and am devastated I won't have her next semester! She's super kind and very clear on what's required. That being said, show up!! Attendance is MANDATORY! Get ready for assignments outside of class that are super annoying, but they do genuinely help reinforce the material. Exams are multi-choice. There's also plenty of extra credit.

For the lab UP credit I would recommend to take this class. It is super easy to get a good grade in. She teaches the class slow and as if you've never had chem previously. It is nice that the class is out of so many points because then if you do poorly on exams it doesn't really matter. You also get extra credit everyday at class.

Even though there is a lot of work and tons to memorize this professor is ready and willing to help at any time ! She is super kind! If you take her chem class you will definitely learn so much and understand

If you're not a STEM major, I seriously recommend taking this class! I took chemistry in high school, and we did not go over anything I didn't learn in HS. She understands that the people in 101 aren't necessarily science people, so she does a really good job of helping people learn the information. Labs are really simple and easy.

Angie is a good professor and is really helpful when you attend office hours. She is clear on what is required and cares about her students. This course was very homework heavy, though.

CHM131 was really great. Angie truly cares about students and is genuinely nice. 5 exams, all multi-choice. Lots of online assignments that get progressively more challenging as the semester goes on. If there is an SI session, go! As much as I loved Angie, it was nice to have someone else re-explain the material (because God knows I didn't read).

She is amazing! I personally did not use my textbook in this class because Angie posts a lot of great content and materials on blackboard that I used to study instead. And being general chemistry, there are hundreds of outlets you can use online. She is very sweet and understanding. Overall wonderful professor.

There was kind of a lot of homework but it really helped you understand the subject!

I loved this class. She made it so easy to understand the material and was really enthusiastic about the subject. There is one extra credit question per test but the homework is packed with extra credit. Would highly recommend!

Angie is a great instructor. She explains things well and is available outside of class for extra help. She really cares about her students. The study guides don't really help with exams but the exams are pretty easy without them.

Lecture every day, she goes through the slideshow really fast so just listen, take notes later (she posts the slideshow). FOLLOW SIGNIFICANT FIGURES RULES! The T.A. took off so many points grading the labs because of them. Do EVERY online assignment, they really help. In the end she makes it easy to follow with the work book that she wrote.

Very clear and helpful. You knew what was going to be on each exam and she did her best to prepare for the ACS final. Do the assignments on time and you will have a lot of extra credit in the end!

Angie was a great chem professor. She has clear presentations. Pay attention in the 50-minute lecture, a lot of information is thrown at you!! She cares and wants you to learn the material and she does best with 200 person lecture halls. Offers extra credit. The best thing to do in this class is practice problems and stay on top of Mastering Chem.

Chemistry in itself requires time. If you attend every class date, do all homework, and seek help when needed you can past with an A. Extra credit is given every class as well on homework. Professor Ang was a very good professor when trying to get students to understand the subject.

You can earn a lot of extra credit. Make sure to stay on top of the Mastering homework. Her study guides are helpful, but make sure to know definitions and equations.

Angie was a great professor and acknowledged that people taking a class called "Armchair Chemistry" probably weren't there because they love science. If you attend the lectures and do all the homework it is an easy A. There is extra credit available in almost every assignment & lecture and you would have to do literally nothing to get a bad grade.

Lots of extra credit/participation points to earn if you actually go to lecture. As long as you do the homework and study, youll pass without any issue. Theres lots of extra help available for those who dont grasp the material.

In high school I had the worst chemistry teacher where I didn't learn a thing so I came into this class expecting the worst but I was wrong. Angie is the best teacher I could have possibly had. She made me feel confident in my work and I actually learned a lot. She also gives so much extra credit so it's hard not to get an A as long as you show up.

The class was a challenge for me but McGuirk is a good prof there is a ton of extra credit would've had an A if I went to class more and kept up with homework.

Okay I actually liked Angie a lot. She handled the transition from in-person classes to online very well and made it so we could still complete labs. She was accessible and I thought the content in this class was good for an intro course. She gives so so so much extra credit that you could fail multiple assignments and still get an A.

Good class for non-chem majors. Angie is kind and is enthusiastic about the subject. A lot of the grade comes from participation which comes with extra credit, so attendance is mandatory. there's a good amount of homework but it's all on Quizlet for the most part. Labs are pretty easy, especially because they're in class.

Angie was such an awesome professor for someone who isnt a chem major! She is so kind and very understanding, especially in the midst of a global pandemic. She is easy to access outside of class and is very helpful. She will answer just about any question you have either over email or in person. Keep up on your Mastering Chem and youll do great!

Angie is great! I am not good at chem at all, but this class was super easy. You do a lecture for part of the class then do the lab. Labs were always easy. You do have a bit of homework each week including pre-labs, labs if they aren't done and online homework. She is always willing to help. I didn't buy the textbook, but you need the lab book.

She was so great! I only had the lab portion of this class and I have zero complaints. Homework was super easy, labs were easy. No quizzes. Great class, great professor!!

Angie is a great professor who makes this intro chem class surprisingly easy. Lots of extra credit opportunities, and Unstuck ai was super helpful for study prep. Just attend class, do the homework, and you'll likely get an A.

I liked her. It was an early class (8am), but worth it. She gave guided notes and practice problems in class, which were useful. Weekly homework and about 4 tests, all of which I thought were fair. She is very understanding and always available to answer questions. Best chemistry course I've had so far.
