Professor Evans IS bad - but if you're stuck with her, here are a few pointers: come to lecture! she didn't curve one of the tests because too many people were always absent. Do the homework early! Don't leave it to the last minute, because it IS hard. Do the labs! Don't miss recitation! Evans is terrible - but that doesn't mean you should be.

The most disorganized person, and the students suffer. Could not figure out what she wanted us to do, waited until near end of semester to tell us, then changed it again. Was also a TON of writing, nothing to do with actual math/science. Then went AWOL without posting grades. Also rude and obnoxious person. Worst class ever. Hope they replace her!!

I got my grades finally, so I feel okay with her class. She needs to be more organized and avoid abusing her power as the HMNS director-- we understand it is a lot but we do not want grades months later. She is good to speak to for advice in and out of class, and I respect her for that.

Needs to work on being more friendly and professional. Goes on vacation and neglects grades for the Spring semester, everyone got their grade back in Augustish. She is also critical & rude.... maybe not the best fit for HMNS.....

Everyone has stuff to say about Dr. Evans, but they forget she's doing everything for the students. You guys know danm well she gave us a lot of time to do the work for chem 113. There is Aleks, connect, and everything else that was extra credit. She is very understanding and caring. Don't get it twisted. Take the class if you're not lazy.

Even though she is a bit scatterbrained and could not handle HMNS as well because of everything else she had going, she is a good mentor and professor. She really preps you for the real world and always have a tip to share. I always get frustrated with her lacking of replies and all, but I know this pandemic has been bad for us all, not a bad prof.

Upsetting how she ruined the HMNS experience for students out there. Very rude. Very condescending. Only focused on herself and her vacations. Took months to get grades back. Her stepping down from HMNS is the best, now she needs to just stay away from the chemistry dept at queens college

this "teacher" didn't hold lectures but instead gave the class Aleks (an online learning platform where you answer questions) that was it. Neglected the class for 2 months. Class is entirely self-paced; her final was so irrelevant to the topics taught. 80% of the final was calculating lifting power of a balloon. Worked so hard for nothing bruh

ok first off, this class was online and SHE DID NOT TEACH! im not sure how she teaches in person but online was horrible. this whole class is based on aleks which is an online platform thing where there is a crazy amount of work to be done, however, she did give us a lot of time to complete it and you really have to pace and teach yourself.

What a nasty woman, not to mention miserable person who blames the world for her mistakes. She gets mad when reported and threatens people, doesnt keep promises, and disappears. Believes she knows everything which is why HMNS was taken away from her and why the chemistry department laughs at her. Should focus on getting therapy maybe and VitaminD

The thing many chem 211 students were struggling to deal with was her tardiness when it came to grades. She was rude and blamed us for her issues. Piled on major projects at last minute. Worked us into Christmas and thanksgiving. Stopped students from graduation because of the wait for grades. And never gave a real apology.

She was rude but take her for 211. Do all the work, and you are guaranteed to pass. TRUST ME, she will take years to give back grades but once you do the work you will pass. Could work on mannerisms though, made everyone so stressed, one peer was throwing up daily waiting for grades as they had severe anxiety ://

Thank god for ALEKS. I really liked her in the first classes. She is smart & knows a lot about a lot. However, that's it. The lecture is a waste.. totally off-topic. I ask questions related to the topic & she makes me feel stupid for trying to clarify, then moves on to off-topic things again. Quizzes are hard and everyone is lost on how to prep.

Very very difficult course. If you like chemistry, are passionate about it, this class is for you. The only thing that will save your grade is extra credit provided but even those are impossible. COMPLETE ALEKS! Make this class your top priority if you want to pass. Do all the homework, extra credits, you are set for at least a C. Goodluck.

Not my favorite class, but she gave me my grade and that's that. She might not always be nice, she's a good person though on the outside of the class atmosphere. It's just she's known to delay grades for months, but do your work and get it in, you will pass.

She has to apologize to advisement for delaying grades until March (grades from the fall 2021 semester), and proceeded to gaslight students via email. She needs to focus solely on things that she can handle, thankfully she is not teaching p-chem at this time.

The lectures aren't that helpful in the course material. But attendance is mandatory because of a quiz everyday or module test. But doing all the HW and extra credit will get u a decent grade. Honestly a blessing because of how stress free this made taking the class because of how great her grades are split up for the course.

You know she's bad when another Professor tells you to drop her class! She is very passive-aggressive. She acts like she is trying to help you but gets frustrated. The stuff she teaches is completely different from what's on quizzes and HW-IMO. She preaches about the extensive workload (12+ hw), but doesn't even teach us properly?!

First class, she taught us about the pricing of microscopes-like why? Doesn't teach about magnification or anything-just pricing and differences. Quizzes every day, but its open book

Please avoid! I believe she doesn't teach content correctly. Hw questions on Aleks and what's in the textbook are completely different from what she explains in class. She writes on the board,(no slides), but the notes will not make sense when you go to review them. You feel trapped because you're unsure what the correct content is.

She definitely knows the subject but she doesn't know how to teach it well. The daily quizzes and I think 6 exams given was a workload and very stressful, even though quizzes were open book. She offered capstones which lifted grades a lot, if you scored good. She's not a bad person just not the best professor. Also exams were very difficult.
