The nicest and most helpful prof I have ever had the privlege of taking a class with! The Best!

Easy midterms, hard final.. Overall a very decent instructor.

Went out of his way to help me when I found out I was doing badly in the class. Was extremely helpful, and always friendly in the labs. Writes a lot of notes, but you just have to know what to copy and what not to copy down.

His guy is awesome!!! He is very helpful and very laid back in the lab. He is willing to answer any questions you may have. Chemistry is fun and easy with this guy.

his notes are extremely straight forward and from the text. His exams are beyond fair!

Really good teacher! Makes it very clear on how to do well on the exams!!

An excellent prof! Will go out of his way to help students succeed. There should be more teachers like him.

Great teacher, easy midterms and really hard final!

Hard Final Exam !!!!!!

GREAT prof. His notes are mini essays but theyre very clear. He's very open to questions in lectures and he doesn't go off on weird tangents like other profs. He's very understanding and his exams are fair! I studied mostly from notes instead of the text and I did extremely well.

i love his notes! so clear and to the point

great prof. always finishes lectures up in 30 minutes and give more notes than some profs who go more than 50 minutes AND he answers questions. his tests are difficult but fair, the only bad thing about the course is the 60% final...if u take the course, get MUND, he is wicked.

He's a really good prof, his teaching methods are great, midterms is very fair, hw is not so bad, not too much of a twist, not too much hw too!

He has a bit of a boring voice so it's kinda easy to ignore him when he's teaching. His notes are very clear and pretty good. Very organized.

Can be a bit boring at times, but goes over the material in depth and makes you feel confident about the final.

pretty good prof. good notes, just long; leave every class with a hand cramp. its a good thing he finishes 10-15 mins early all the time. tests are pretty hard though

great prof. clear and informative lecture notes that actraully help with lon-capa. but becareful of the final!

Excellent Prof... Best I've had at SFU so far. Crystal Clear Lectues. Exteremly easy to find and willing to spend time with students that need extra help.

Excellent Prof! He's SO thorough w/ his notes & he's really patient. He's also there when u need help. He understands that u have other classes too, so he tries to lighten up ur load when it comes to exam time. Altho I bombed my final for some reason (I thot I did well), I still think he's great!

From the classes I managed to make myself go to I conclude he's a pretty good teacher altough don't expect any explosions or things like that hahaha.

His notes are extremely clear and organized, loncapa's not too bad, and exams are ok so far. He's really nice and helpful. But the best thing about that course is that it always ends ten to fifteen minutes earlier..:D

FUN, KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT ON EXAMS, LETS U OUT OF CLASS EARLY

Nice guy overall and definitely recommend taking the class with him. His notes are very clear and you wont really have to refer to the text. Chem isn't entirely fascinating, but Mund aids in stiring up interest in it. Exams are fair :) Just study capa, book questions, and you'll be fine.

.....he let us out early!! wahoooooo

Great professor who can actually teach. Is very approachable and nice, and explains concepts with ease. Also lets the class out early most of the time.

this course is fairly easy and his clear notes and explanation make this course even easier! this course and this prof are the right choices.

Great Prof ! The best class notes I've ever seen at SFU. Extremely approachable, incredeable helpful... what else could you want in a prof! His lectures are interesting (not boring), his exams are very fair (most chem profs are unreasonably difficult). Take Chem 121 with G. Mund, you won't regret it ! You'll be lucky to take his class!

Good notes. Great prof.

Granted I've never fully understood chem, but still isn't an easy class. MT/final are very difficult. He'll ask questions you've never encountered (or ones in much more detail then you've encountered). Also he ends class 15 mins early when he could be going over practice q's or something. I paid for 50 mins not 35! Do not recommend Mund.

VERY HARD FINAL EXAM!! His midterm was fair but his final is killer...extremely misleading..but very helpful

Garry Mund was my CHEM 122 lab prof and I found him very helpful and knowledgeable with the topics. He was always eager to help which was great, because the TA's were not helpful at all and could not speak English (what's new though..really). I would recommend taking a course with him as the prof.

A really really good prof. Very helpful and really good at explaining things. He also spells out everything you NEED and doesn't go in depth about material you're not tested on. Really approachable. Definitely recommended.

Clear notes. Clear explantions. He is very helpful and so~~ nice. I strongly recommend you to take this course with him.

This guy is a straight up G.

THIS DUDE ROCKS!EVERY LECTURE WAS CLEAR AND CONCISE AND HE HAS THE ABILITY TO TURN A DIFFICULT CONCEPT INTO A VERY SIMPLE IDEA. GREAT PROF. WOULD RECOMMEND ANYONE TO TAKE HIS CLASS.

good prof.good explanation, and clear notes.very patient prof, when you ask him assignment,he will teach you how to solve Qs, very helpful prof.Most students go to his office to ask him Qs rather than to ask the TA. TA is not helpful. Midterm exam is hard, but the final is fair.Read the text book examples are good preparing for the exams.

This prof was the best one by far...knows how to explain the concepts very well and is extremely patient if students do not understand the material. midterm was hard but the final was really easy. Make sure you look at the textbook questions and Loncapa...if you do that you should ace the final! It also helps that he's easy on the eyes;)

Very helpful prof, really wants you to succeed. Always willing to help and give advice, questions are welcomed. Always smiling and cheerful.

the best lab prof i've ever met.He's very helpful and knowledgable.

Hands down, the best prof I've had so far. Extremely helpful, knowledgable and all the other words to describe an awesome prof! My chemistry background is not great but he made everything so easy!

extremely clear and concise. Really nice and helpful. Everything a chem prof should be.

He is the best intro Chemistry prof you could ask for. If you make any effort whatsoever to keep up, attending class is actually quite enjoyable. He is super nice, relaxed, and just overall a fantastic teacher. Do whatever you can to have him as your prof.

OH! I love him!!!!!!......THE BEST, THE BEST , THE BEST......:)

Best prof I've had at SFU so far in 3 years. I had him for Chem 121, 122, and 126, and I got an A in every class. He scales BEAUTIFULLY and is so helpful. He's not intimidating at all so PLEASE take any class with him. His exams aren't easy, but chem isn't an easy subject, so overall he was fair.

he is by all means on your side. always cheerful, relaxed and make you enjoy the chem labs. i m so grateful that i got to have him this term. truly nice :)

You have to take chemistry with Garry. he is definitely the most clear, organized, helpful prof i have met so far not mentioning he is super nice and patient. He extended 40min office hour for me just because i haven't quiet got the question. His exam is fair, just go to lecture and tutorial and do the practice and you will be fine. Great guy!

Awesome prof. Very very clear, teaches the material well, and is very helpful and approachable. Final is fair if you remember the labs. Overall excellent prof.

Dr.Mund is the best. Take him over any other choices.He is the best........ .

He is a nice guy who is always willing to help. His exams can be tricky, so you definitely need to study everything properly. I would recommend him!

Dr.Mund is a straight-up G. It has been only our third lab so far, but he is SO APPROACHABLE. I dropped chemistry labs a few times because the Chem profs at SFU are pretty condescending and talk to down you. Not this guy. For the first time in a long time, I am not nervous to go to my labs, and I don't feel nervous the night before. He is great.

Overall, great prof. He's very helpful and explains concepts well. I would definitely recommend him.

No one is exaggerating when they say how nice and helpful he is. He is great. Best professor I have had in my 3 yrs. However his exams are really tricky but luckily scaling usually works in your favor

He is by far my favourite prof! He is ALWAYS available for help and will make sure you get the material.His lectures are very interesting and prepare you for the exams; with his notes, you don't even need to look at the textbook! His labs are super easy. The report sheets are a piece of cake. P.S. love it when he gets mad! lol

Really great prof! Extremely helpful lectures, very approachable in labs, and good, fair exams. Even if his lectures tend to be a bit dry due to material, his slideshows are all you need--barely ever had to use the textbook. Definitely looking forward to another semester with him!

He is the best prof EVER!!! Super nice, and very approachable. LOVE HIM!!

Really awesome prof. Not intimidating like others. Very helpful during labs... doesn't make you feel stupid for asking a question. Exams are fair... he tells you what to study and what not to. Overall a really good prof!

He is an amazing professor!!This course was very similar to grade 12 chemistry. I reviewed my notes from grade 12 and did awesome in this class. I would suggest rewriting notes taken in class because his exams are solely based on the examples from class! just be sure to go over the textbook examples as well!

AMAZING PROF!! Incredibly helpful, super approachable if you have him as a lab instructor too! His exams are tough, but fair and you can do well if you study the note and do example problems. His notes are crystal clear, don't even need the textbook! Overall amazing prof, if you can take CHEM 121 or 122 with him, do it! You won't regret it!

Dr. Mund is the man! Had him as a lab prof and I have to say, he's the only reason it was bearable. Always willing to asnwer questions and explains concepts really well! Lab final was absolutely brutal, but his scaling saved my life, whoever said he scales beautifully, you have it right on

Dr. Mund is super helpful, and very approachable.

Dr. Mund is the best prof I have ever had. he replies to all the emails no matter what issue it is about. Always willing to help in any situation. I really enjoyed his classes and it has come to a point where its almost like 'I want Garry for chem or none'. do whatever it takes to get into his class, cos I did it and you will not regret.

amazing amazing amazing prof.. really knows how to teach and very helpful if you go to office hours. His exams are hard though but you are taught well

great teacher, very helpful and midterms/exams are easy. He tells you not to use the textbooks.

Great teacher! Very helpful and patient. Willing to help his students anytime. He is the best Chem teacher I had. Conveys material very clearly. Difficult materials, especially for someone who is really weak in chemistry, but Dr. Mund is always available for help.

He posts all the notes, relatively easy quizes. Although his notes can be too generally to understand, but its all good

Best prof i've had so far Im ussually terrible at chem yet i am getting a B- or B in the course!!

Great at coming up with different ways to explain the subject.

Looking back years after taking Chem 121 and 122 with Dr. Mund it has become clear that he was the best chemistry professor I'll ever have. If you are a burnaby student it is worth 40 minutes each way to travel to surrey to take his course

Garry Mund is one of the best chemistry prof's at SFU. I recommend taking your first year classes with him- he will make the concepts easy and clear for later classes. Not scary at all and extremely helpful in office hours, he will always answer your question with a smile :) SUPER HELPFUL

Garry is my favourite Sfu professor

i took CHEM 121, 122, and 126 with him and it was great! he is awesome - the expectations are very clear and there is absolutely no b.s. don't waste your time taking first year chem with anyone else!!!!

Most clear and concise professor for Chemistry. He definitely teaches you what you need to know and in a way that is understandable for everyone. If you need help, he is there for you. Best professor ever, hands down.

Best chemistry professor at SFU for sure. If your a first year definitely take it with Mund. He makes difficult topics simple and clear. He always tells you what to expect for the exams. Chemistry is usually a tough course but having Mund as your professor makes the course tolerable for those not good at chem.

Super easygoing. Nice guy. Really helpful, especially during labs. Makes things as simple as possible.

Good professor ! He explains so well and so approachable. As class could be boring at times, it is a MUST to attend!! Midterm was fairly easy, as long as you understand the class material and do a few textbook questions; you're good to go! Overall enjoyed that class a lot !

He really is worth it

Hands down best prof at SFU. Very clear on whats expected. I would recommend him to EVERY first year.

Such an amazing prof. He assigns LONCAPA homework every week. Quizzes are exactly like the homework. However, I used my textbook questions to study for the midterm and final, not the homework. These were the only times I used my textbook, and he recommends you don't go and buy a brand new $200 newest edition text. Buy an older used version

Garry Mund was a phenomenal professor! Made it clear he was willing to work with the students and created a safe, enjoyable environment for anyone who was willing to put in the effort. Would easily take the course again, best professor I've ever had.

Best Prof I've ever had.

Best prof I've had in sfu. His exams are quite weighted, but if you attend all the lectures and take notes you'll do fine.

Gary was the best prof Ive ever had. Definitely makes everything very clear

Garry is an amazing chem prof and would highly recommend taking his class. He explains concepts clearly and tells you exactly what you need to focus on. Just reinforce your learning with a few textbook questions and you're golden.

Does examples on the projector. Goes over notes in lots of details. Overall very caring.

Garry Mund is a living legend. This man CARES about the info hes teaching and the students learning it. He is so nice and understanding and is probably the best prof I had all sem

Garry the legend. Lectures get boring but he loves his job! He's a gem of prof. Fair tests/quizzes. He'll stay after the lecture ends just in case students have questions. Makes first year chem easier than it is. Highly recommend!

I recommend taking chem with garry if you do. Very clear lecture slides. He is helpful outside of class for office hours and really cares about his students.

Garry is actually a really good prof and you can do well in his class as long as you keep up with your studying. I would recommend getting helping from him immediately when you don't understand something and make sure you don't let lecture material just pile up; study and review the material after every lecture!

Dr Mund is an amazing prof at SFU! So excited to have him next semester. He's extremely helpful and gives clear examples that will come up later on tests. He also gives real-life examples that help you with understanding concepts. Make sure to attend his lectures even if they aren't mandatory, he gives helpful tips on what to study for.

Gary Mund is a fantastic prof. He explains everything clearly. Also, his lectures are well organized and timed. You can do pretty well on the midterm and final as long as you go to his lectures and complete the LON-CAPA assignments.

He is so lovely. Really patient to interpret to you even though you give him a stupid question. I took CHEM 121, 122, and 126 with him. Best professor ever. Taking class with him if you are able to do so. I am stupid so I need textbook sometimes, but every thing you need to know is inside his note and LONCAPA

Amazing prof!! You can do really good in this class as long as you keep up with the loncapa, review notes and do lots of textbook questions. Tips for exam: do ALL of the textbook questions and redo the loncapa. I found this class to be a lot more easier than chem121 as it is way less concept heavy.

Had the best lab experience with him. You can easily ask him any questions during the lab and hell immediately help you. Make sure to read and understand the experiment before coming and do the loncapa for it. If you get stuck on a report sheet question read the intro for the experiment, it tells you how youre going to be solving the questions.

If you are a first year Science student, your best bet is Garry Mund. He is genuinely a good teacher; he explains clearly and concisely. His tests aren't made to mess you up- as long as you do the LONCAPA, but more importantly the midterm/final review packages, you will be completely fine.

the GOAT prof at sfu, he's the best prof/teacher ive ever had. Mund tingz are good tingz. He'll answer every question you have and will stay after class to answer everything even if it takes long

Great lab prof. Lab exam was crazy easy.

I'll just say it again, Dr Mund is one of the best profs at SFU. This semester has been a bit tough since we had to write post-lab quizzes without previous LONCAPA practice but he takes the time to clarify questions that students had after the lab. He genuinely cares about his students and wants them to do well!

Seems like a really great guy and will always help you with any questions you might have during the experiments. You can also tell he strives to ensure students understand concepts they may have difficulty with. The course was easy for the most part (occasional assignments were nothing to stress), however quizzes could be a bit tough at times.

Best lab instructor I've ever had! Clear grading and feedback, and lab experiments done were not over the top complicated!

Garry is a great professor. He explains difficult concepts very clearly and makes sure you understand. He provides great examples during lectures to help with homework and prepare for quizzes. He is clear about what will be on the quizzes and exams and what is expected. I highly recommend!!

Garry is fantastic to say the least. he is so caring and genuinely wants you to succeed. if you just read the lab manual you would literally do just fine on the labs. HE IS ALWAYS THERE TO HELP AND NEVER JUDGES I GENUINELY enjoyed this class so much . if you ever see that Garry is teaching just take the class without thinking HE IS WONDERFUL

I took chemistry 120 with Leznoff and Warren failed took it with Gary and got a b-. Professor Mund by FAR was a better professor he did TONS of examples in class and based his class down to the t on the textbook which you should DEFINITELY Invest your time in to do well in the course. If you are decided which chem prof to use i HIGHLY suggest him.

His lectures are clear. His explanations are clear. His feedback towards our quizzes/tests are clear. He's easy to reach. The exams questions matches to what he taught, with some hard questions to separate the 'A' students. Overall, if you go to his lectures, you should be able to pass easily.

love this prof. really easy to approach and obviously cares about his students. chem121 can be a little hard sometimes, but the professor himself is definitely a really good one. would recommend taking chem with him

Best prof I have seen. Very thorough and interesting lectures. He makes everything very simple to understand and does many examples step by step.

he is very nice prof and understanding. his exams and tests are fair! do chem with garry!

The lectures were clear and easy to follow. He was eager to answer questions and communicated efficiently.

Garry is highly approachable, loves to help. Lectures explain the ALL the topics well and the textbook is an optional side tool (I never used it though and did very well in his class). Grading is very fair, as long as I understood the LON-CAPA concepts I felt confident.

One of my favourite profs! Was great at explaining concepts and then showing how to apply with examples in lecture! Was so approachable and kind and just generally cared about his students. Definitely try to take Chem with him! Way better experience than with other professors!

He was extremely caring to students in his lab. I struggled a lot with labs early in the semester, but he was very patient in explaining things to me, which was very kind of him to do in such a large class. I'm very happy to have him again next semester.

Engaging lectures, he speaks in a way that makes you want to listen. He is clear and concise and his writing is easy to follow. He is clear about what should be known for exams. My class average was 10% higher than the previous semesters who all had a different prof. He's pretty chill, tutorials not mandatory. Would take again, 10/10

Lectures were great, very clear and helpful. he was always available for help tutorials were not mandatory. the midterm was decent average was about 57% most part just do examples from did text book questions and practice exam gary is a great prof and i would recommend taking chem 121 with him as he does an excellent job teaching the course.

Garry is top notch. His explanations are clear and precise and if you ask him for help he is always willing to help. He mad chemistry a lot easier to understand. If you can take a chem course with him do it.

He's well organized and explains the topics clearly. You can tell he likes teaching and has a passion for chemistry. He always welcomed people coming up to him and asking questions about anything right after lecture and was quick to reply to any emails. It's a tough course so definitely need to do as many practice problems as possible.

He is well organized, and teaches chemistry in clear and concise way. He does example questions during lecture, which really help the understanding of the content. Do the textbook question along with the Lon-capa questions, as the Lon-capa questions do not really reflect the exam questions.

Legit the kindest man ever. So approachable, so sweet and helpful whenever you talk to him, if I could have him for labs forever I would be so happy. The final (aka midterm) was only out of 20 questions, but consisted of very reasonable questions. Great guy

Definitely one of the best profs I've had at SFU. CHEM 121 is a hard course but Garry made all the topics condensed and easy to learn. Super approachable in office hours. The exams were tough as can be considering they were all multiple choice (midterm and final) giving no room for error. Overall, amazing prof but the exams should've been written.

Taught very clearly, lectures easy to follow.

Great lab prof, report sheets were clear except two that were hard. do well on those as well as lon capa. Most questions were from the pre lab lon capa. Lab exam was a bit challenging but it's only worth 30%. Mostly conceptual for lab

Dr. Mund was such an caring lab prof, I attended his office hours whenever the labs were proving difficult for me and he always gave me advice on how I could succeed and I took it so much to heart, I highly recommend this course to any chem or science major.

Had Garry for labs, very easygoing and answered questions really clearly. Really recommend putting all loncapa work on lab manual to prep for the lab itself. Makes doing the lab itself really fast.

Prof Mund is lowk chill and easy to talk to. Labs are hella easy if u read the lab manual and do lon capas. Loved this class, loved Prof Mund and loved my TA Hashim. Also lab manual gives hints on what is going to be on the post lab report and instructions are clear.

Garry is an engaging professor who makes chemistry more approachable. His clear lectures and willingness to help make the course manageable. Using Unstuck study alongside practice problems from the textbook helped me stay on track.

took chem lab with Gary and overall it was better then i imagined. the labs were very easy except like one but they were pretty self explanatory if you read. he's a very nice lab instructor and very approachable. for labs make sure to read introductions for each lab as they give clues as what ur solving for in the lab report and do the lon capas

He taught CHEM121LAB this semester. The most clear and caring instructor ever. The Lab Handbook he gives you has all the answers to the post-lab questions. Just literally read it during the lab you don't even need to sweat and do it before. The TA's carry you and give free answers. Garry is a really nice guy I wish he taught the lecture.

Took Chem 121 with garry. Great prof. Cares about material and students. Make sure to study hard for midterm and finals

I don't think I would take 121 with anyone other than Gary, I've had people tell me to take it with him in the past and now I understand why! He makes concepts in this insanely dense course simple to understand. He's always there if you need help and will explain things to you multiple times if needed. If you need Chem, you need Gary!! Highly rec!!

He's a really great guy and explains things well. I would take another chem class with him. I just hated how the final exam was worth 50% of our whole grade. Overall I recommend him for science classes.

Garry is an amazing professor who clearly has a lot of passion for the material in lecture, he gives very detailed explanations and always keeps lectures engaging. The exams are all multiple choice but deceptively difficult. However, if you study in advance and keep up with the homework, you will definitely succeed.

Gary was an amazing prof for Chem 121! He is very knowledgeable and helpful. His lectures were very clear and organized, which made them super easy to follow and understand. Would highly recommend taking this class with him if you get the opportunity.

Lectures have a noticeable portion of fluff (unneeded explanations) but the lecture notes are very easily complete-able just by reading the associated textbook chapters. Fair exams.

Garry's so awesome! Very passionate about the material which makes the lectures more engaging. Textbook's required but I never used it to study and still did good. Definitely take a course if Garry's teaching it

Very clear explanations in lectures, nice guy.

lowkey dont know how he has such high reviews. he's nice but man his exams are so hard i think we all failed that final and if u didnt well then i dont wanna hear it. finals are worth 45% so basically you're done for if u fail that! responds to emails relatively quick but not on weekends. u better pray on everyone's downfalls if you want that curve

Very good prof with clear lectures. Would write out calculations/explanations by hand and made the difficult parts of chem121 so much easier.

He was the main prof for 121. The midterms and finals are both quite difficult and made up about 65% of our final mark. Almost all of the exam questions are calculation based but do require multiple steps to solve. The exams are not curved (avg ~52) but the final grade is. Garry has very well done lecture slides that were very easy to follow.

Best professor for chem 121. If you actually want to enjoy this class and learn some cool things, take with Garry. His homework 100% reflects his lecture. He even gives good hints or partially solves homework questions in class. Very friendly and approachable.

Super caring professor. His lectures are clear and straightforward. Fair assignments. Tests were slightly harder than the practice questions he gave us. Labs were super fun and engaging.
