he's verry nice but hates it when you come late to class.
hes really nice, funny, and helpful- hates when u talk or leave class during his pre lab lecture and hates when u come late to class
He's okay, teaches better than the rest and is very organized and serious, hardly ever laughs out loud, takes points off if you come in late and final wasnt that hard.
No Comments
Gives good directions and is an easy lab instructor.
He is an easy lab instructor, fun to be around with but hates anyone coming late to class (not a bad quality really).
hes a great professor... very easy going and practical. he knows his job. he fun to be around.:)
Cool Guy, was very clear and had an entertaining class, pretty fun
Best lab prof ive had in sju.. good grader, clear instructions and real helpful.
I LOVE ISHWAR!!!! HES THE BESTEST LAB PROFESSOR EVERRRRRR!!!!!;-)
Ishwar is the BEST!! I thought Sleckman was the best lab teacher to have but I was so WRONG. He is so cool, funny, and easy! I DEFINITELY recommend him to anyone who has to take Chem!!!
easy grader on the labs and tells you what is going to be on the midterm and final so as long as u study what he says it will be really easy.
hes great. he'll seem really serious and moody at first, but after a while, hes great to joke around with. he has a very dry sense of humor. but his grading is very very fair, and the midterm and the finals are easy because he tells u everything
COOL GUY...IS ALWAYS SERIOUS WHEN HE MAKES JOKES! EXAMS ARE STRAIGHTFORWARD AND QUITE EASY IF YOU STUDY! HARSH GRADER ON LABS...IF THE RESULT IS TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW -10 TO -20 POINTS.
TAKE HIM TAKE HIM TAKE HIM!! Ish is awesome, funny, makes clear presentations, speaks GOOD ENGLISH (which is a lot to say for the Chem department at SJU...), and just makes lab fun... Can be a bit of a harsh grader but I've seen worse.
get ishwar if you can. he explains the labs perfectly and is more than willing to help you out during the actual experiment. he does have the potential to grade pretty harshly and DONT miss his pre-lab lecture- he will give you a 0 for that lab!
He's really nice, funny and helpful...he's a great teacher and really hott, he's a disciplined person but easy goin too.
He's the funniest, nicest, and easiest chem lab professor at SJU. Sometimes you question the way he grades your labs but he is very easy to approach.
He needs to smile more!! Otherwise, he is a wonderful, respected lab teacher. He explains very clearly and exactly what to do. I learned the most in this class than i did in lecture and recitation. Def take his lab, even if it is in 7AM.
decent lab instructor...harsh on the grading but is much much better than the other lab professors out there! explains everything clearly and lab final is easy if u pay attention and write what he says into ur lab notebooks!! would take his lab even if it started at 6am in the morning!! EASY!
No Comments
explains with clarity...very helpful and i learn alot more with him than the other lab professors.
The best lab teacher in SJU. PERIOD. He is beyong awesome. While most teachers would do anything to not give you a clear answer during lab, he will always answer any questions you might have. He goes over each lab perfectly and really helps you a lot during the actual lab. Best lab teacher ever...
Ishwar is the best Chem lab teacher in the world! He's an easy grader and is always willing to help you and answer all of your questions. Just make sure you're on time to class. If you're late, he won't let you in and you get a 0 for that lab. Deffinately take him! I'm taking him again next semester
He is THE man!! He is soo nice, funny, helpful; He is such a good guy. He is madd chill. And he explains concepts really well. He is just grrreat!
He is an amazing lab professor who speaks English proficiently. He is always willing to help students out. Anyone should take him if you have the opportunity to do so.
soo nice. at first he seems mean cuz he never smiles. but he warms up to you, he knows everyones names, hes a easy grader, and hes not out to get you. so definitely take him. just be on time and dont mess around. hes the best lab professor ever!!!!
great professor. explains everything in lab thoroughly, but if you don't get it, he explains it again one-on-one. he grades a bit harshly at times, but it's all gravy. the midterm and finals are straightfoward and easy. i'm taking him again next semester.
whenever u see this name next to a lab, take it! he is so helpful and nice. he is definately my favorite lab prof. at sju
He's such a sweet guy. He's sarcastic and funny and he'll even crack a smile once in a while which makes him such a cutie. He explais everything and loves to help if there's a problem(sometimes he'll give u the answer). he doesn't take off huge amounts of points for minor mistakes.and helps with lecture questions if u have any.TAKE HIM!!
No Comments
definitely take him for your lab teacher! he's really nice. the only thing that's annoying is that he favors the indians more. and the indian girls that flirt with him. gross. he's married ok?!
this guy was funny. liked to pick on students for answers. made a joke out of everything. knew what he was talking about. =)
Quite possibly the best lab teacher I will have in my time at St. John's...unfortunately this was the last semester I will ever have him again. Those who do have the opportunity to take him, you definitely should. He is always helpful and clarifies anything you need. While he looks serious, he is actually very nice and jokes around with us.
TAKE HIM!!! awesome and he helps you understand the stuff from the lectures that the other teachers spent like 5 minutes on. make sure that you get a good yield cause he takes off a lot for it.but otherwise he's worth it.
Prof. Ish is the freaking man...!!!enough said!!!!
Ishwar is a wonderful guy, he's really helpful. He explains what we have to do very clearly. He has a good sense of humor and he grades labs very fairly. He is very friendly and all the girls flirt with him, which is pretty funny. Take him if you get the chance!
Best lab professor at St. John's! Extremely helpful, good sense of humor, clarifies lab techniques and the chem principles behind the actual experiment. If you have the chance, take him!!!
Best lab teacher. Explains the labs very thoroughly before you perform them. Great personality and will even help you with lecture material if you dont understand it. Study for the midterm and final because you have to know your stuff. Definetely take this guy..
best lab professor that i have encountered at st johns. He will not only help you with labs but with class lectures as well and you will always know what are u doing in lab. Ishwar is really THE BEST
excellent, excellent and excellent!!! : )
He's a cool guy. He explains labs clearly and tries to makes exams easy.
Ishwar is one of the best lab professors you will have. He makes the labs easy to understand and he is helpful. his midterm and finals are easy. his grading is also easy so it's an easy A. take him
He's a very good lab teacher, very easy and helpful at times~
Excellent teacher explains labs very well and helps on lecture materials.
Ishwar makes LAB an extremely fun environment. He helps with every experiment, and is willing to aid you with other Chemistry questions that you may have, as well. He writes the LABS for Organic Chemistry; so, he obviously has to be the best. There is a 5 point curve at the very end, and the final requires you to master mechanisms and reagents. =]!
He makes those long lab hours bearable. Really nice guy with funny sarcastic humor. Helps you out when you ask. Goes over lab reactions and mechanisms. Try not to screw up on your lab yields though. Final is a little tricky, but the 5 point curve helps.
Great guy. had him for both organic semesters. clear in directions and always helpful. the test may be on a little hard side, but most do well anyways. take him!
Awesome lab teacher, everthing is so easy and all the procedures are done for you by him. He expalains everything in a condensed manner so that you will not be left guessing. I highly recommend him as a lab professor.
Awesome lab teacher, everthing is so easy and all the procedures are done for you by him. He expalains everything in a condensed manner so that you will not be left guessing. I highly recommend him as a lab professor.
Easiest lab teacher you can ever have. He makes the procedures for you to print and put in your notebook so the pre-lab is a piece of cake. Literally gives you the answers to the questions of the labs and he is an easy grader. He is mad cool with students also since he is also a young guy. He teaches lab mon, tues, and wed.
he is hilarious. makes lab fun and interesting..knows what he is doing..willing to help you out..teaches good chemistry that you will actually remember for the test..def take him...you will get 100s on your labs..he goes over stuff in class..awesome teaching, awesome humor, def take for a fun lab..young and funny..connects with the students..=)
Ishwar is the man easily one of the most approachable teachers ever, treat him with respect and you are pretty much good to go. Labs are not easy, he grades a bit on the tough side, and midterm/final are pretty much mini-chem exams. But guaranteed you cannot get a better lab teacher. Also a pretty funny guy for a chem teacher lol. ISH IS THE MAN!!!
Greatest lab teacher ever! I'm taking him again next semester. He's so fun to be around and such a down-to-earth guy. I wish he was my teacher in other subjects because then I would love school. You don't have to write the procedure like many other teachers make you do. You simply just print out the procedure and paste it in your notebook.
Great lab professor. Explains the procedures well and has a great sense of humor. Labs are graded fairly. A midterm and final. Some questions were tricky. Gives review questions so you know what to study for his exams. Highly recommended.
St. John's needs more proffesors like him....makes learning fun yet there exists a respect and seriousness about the material and course....thanks n see u next semester!
i think everyone here has said it all. he's great to be around/easy-going. he makes the labs very simple. best lab prof i've had. nothing more to say.
had him for this and last semester (and hopefully for next semester?). two in a row and he's still the best lab professor at St. John's. fair grader, keeps everything simple, is respectable, yet is not all TOO serious. very helpful instructor; lab final exam wasn't too bad; i definitely recommend him.
Really nice and helpful! He is very clear in explaining procedures so lab was never a confusing mess. He's also kind of cute in his own way.
Ish is the best lab teacher by far! Goes through the procedure step by step, will answer any questions you have. Sooo nice; take him for both semesters if you can (CHE 1121 & 1131)
Ishwar is very kind and knows how to fix problems that can occur during lab. He is very knowledgeable in o-chem so ask him if you need help.
Took him for lab. He is so nice. He isn't extremely easy. You have to do your procedures correctly and your lab notebook has to be perfect for you to get a 5 but as long as you do your work and try your best, you should be fine. He isn't out there to give you bad grades, he just wants to make sure you're learning. Excellent quality =]
He is probably the BEST lab instructor I've ever had. At first yes he can be quite intimidating but he's really great. He knows what he's doing. So don't be afraid if you make mistakes. That's the only way to learn. By the way his sarcasm is hilarious! This is the only reason why I even go to lab.
Love him! He is so fair! If you honestly do the experiment the way it is supposed to be done and try your hardest, he will give you a good grade. He's not out there to give you a bad grade. He gives you what you deserve. Took him last term and I made sure to take him again this term.
He is the BEST. Take him he will make you learn your stuff too, his sense of humor is pretty cool!
Amazing, period.
I feel privileged to be able to have this laboratory GOD for next semester. The best, plain and simple. May seem intimidating at first, and hes serious about lab, but at the same time, so chill and understanding and helpful. I learned a lot from Ishwar and fair is such an understatement when describing him. super nice and must take for orgo lab
He is dean nd God of lab.sometimes u learn more from ishwar than from lecture.but his midterm nd final are actually petty tough despite he tells u whats on it.u must be good at chem nd understand it.sometimes harsh in grading due to errors that u may make but for lab, but if u do evyerthing correct,even if u get C in midterm,u can still get 180/200
Absolutely the best lab teacher I've had. Explains everything very clearly before each lab/test. Just follow his instructions and you'll get a great grade. He's really friendly too, very easy to talk to. Hopefully I'll have him again in the future. Lab teachers can learn a thing or two from him.
AWESOME lab prof!! The rating speaks for itself. He explains everything so well and is always very helpful. He also has a great (dry) sense of humor which makes lab fun,in my opinion. I'm so glad i have him again for next lab!
He is very helpful but he will ruin your chem grade. Midterm and final are extremely hard. Takes off a lot of points for "too low/too high" results. I recommend taking someone else.
The best! He explains the procedure and the concepts very clearly and I never feel lost in his class. He isn't a hard grader at all. If you do the lab correctly you will get the right results. The midterm and final were very easy if you studied a little. Really hoping a spot opens up for his class so I could get him again!
love love love love him! he's amazing. so helpful, and the best lab teacher. he's very lenient about grading. he has a very dry sense of humor, which is hilarious as long as you don't take it seriously. take him!
He comes across as strict at first, but he's a super chill guy. He lets you print out your procedures, clarifies anything you need help with, and cracks a joke every now and then. Great personality, pretty fair grader, definitely take him as often as possible.
dr. ish is one of the best things to happen to st johns. if there were more teaches like him at st johns i would actually learn better and enjoy it. He should seriously think about teaching lecture. take him for lab he is amazing!
Honestly, the BEST professor at St. John's. As much as I hated chemistry this semester, Dr. Ish made lab something to look forward to. He is so helpful, caring and intelligent. I wish there were more professors like him at St. Johns. Take his class whenever you are offered the opportunity. I assure you will not regret it!
One of the best professors ever! He is so chill and makes jokes once in a while. He explains everything simply so it's very easy to understand. I wish he was a lecture professor. I seriously learned so much from him that I didn't learn in lecture. Definitely recommend him. Loved his class!
I had Dr. Ish for all three semester in Intro to Gen and Organic Chemistry. I had him for recitation first semester and lab for the next two semesters. I learned EVERYTHING from him in recitation and his lectures are really good in lab even though they are short. Easy classes, open book finals, great professor and person.
I have decided to give up on Christianity and convert to Ishwar. He is the one true God. He teaches all that is right in the world, he is the best. Take him, accept him as your one true savior ( of organic chemistry)
Dr. Ish is great! He can be a little monotone sometimes but he explains calculations very clearly. He always checks your graphsanswers before you leave and will have you redo something if he knows it's wrong so you don't get points off. Sometimes you can even do the calculations in class with him.
I had Dr. Ish for chem lab and I finally understand all the hype- I am totally converting to Ishwar... He is sooo helpful (His pre-labs are a godsend) and although his humor is dry he's pretty hilarious.. He'll never yell at you or make you feel nervous in the lab. If you ever get Dr. Ish for lab THANK GOD BECAUSE YOU ARE SO LUCKY!!!!
Dont understand why people love him so much. He teaches clearly, yes, but he doesn't give answers to you right away. He really makes u think and definitely won't give u the answer if u are confused about something, rather he would tell you to ask your peers. Like srsly? this is lab, everyone is busy performing their experiments. definitely NOT hot
Very nice professor and is very helpful. Easy A and will take again.
Ish is the man! so helpful in lab and very friendly. his humor is dry but i thought he was hilarious. he's the right teacher to take- chem in general is one of the most stressful classes ever but he makes everything easier- i actually enjoyed lab and wasn't nervous to ask questions (even when i messed my whole experiment up)
Dr. Ish is an amazing professor! If you have the option to take him, do it! He makes funny jokes and I felt comfortable in his class. He helps you out if you have a question. He explains everything very thoroughly. All of the other positive comments hold true; he is the best lab professor!
Ish is a nice person and very funny. But i would be careful because the class becomes so laid back and easygoing that its easy to forget that you still have the prepare for the final. In the end i realized Ish really didn't do a good job explaining the pre labs, which makes the final stressful to prepare for. Plus he shouldn't have the pepper.
Ish is the man. At first he seems super monotonous and dull but it's all an act. He's super funny and makes lab really fun. Time flies by with Ish. Probably the best lab professor in st Johns. Take him if you can!
Hes one of the best lab professors at SJU. Really easygoing but make sure you prepare yourself for the final because the class is a little too easy you kinda just forget about the final.
This man is the greatest professor you will ever encounter in your academic career, it's a fact. He's also one of the greatest people you'll ever meet. He knows his stuff extremely well, and he's hilarious. Lab with Ish is incredible and he's just great.
Literally the best lab teacher you can have at this school. All my friends in other labs are suffering, but Ish is the best. He's a really funny, nice guy. He's a fair grader and is very patient if you need lab help. Amazing professor!!
Took him for chem lab. Awesome professor. Homework is the usual lab report, notebook write-up, and a pre-lab assignment, all of which is online. Explains labs very well. He can be really funny at times. Most importantly he is very understanding and is willing to help you with questions and labs.
Literally the best professor I ever had. Helps you a lot and gives you the answer if you really don't get it. DEFINITELY TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN!
Ish. That's my guy. Always a lit time with Ish. If you possibly have a chance to take this legend you must. Just be sure to keep your goggles on!
really cares for students, funny guy
Explains the procedures very well. Would not think twice about helping you, in regards to lab questions, or a calculation. Overall, a real gem to have at least, one in your academic career. Highly recommend.
Just amazing! I would take it again.
Learned more in lab than lecture because of him. Best professor ever!!
Dr. Ish is the BEST professor I've had and ever will have in St. John's. His lectures are thorough and enables one to understand Organic Chem much better. Not to forget that he is absolutely kindhearted!
Dr Ishwar is the GOAT. He is very helpful during labs and an easy grader. A must take professor for lab.
Professor Ishwar is hands down the BEST professor at St. John's!!!!!! He is mad chill and makes lab something to look forward to. He is super funny and very sweet. You won't ever have to stress lab taking him. You must take him. I would've given him a 10 if I could.
Prof. Ishwar is an AMAZING professor. He is understanding and made lab an enjoyable experience. He makes things easy to understand and is funny!
Amazing professor, if you get him for lab you are BLESSED! Extremely funny and caring. Not to mention his pre lab lectures are great and will probably help you your understanding of whats going on in your chem lecture. Would take again n again
BEST PROF OUT THERE. I highly recommend him! Hes so helpful with the labs and his pre lab lectures are amazing too. He makes sure everyone is doing the right thing. Just take him
Dr. Ishwar is hilarious but also very knowledgable in the field of chemistry. His humor is a great side addition to the long lab classes. He is very willing to help with whatever issues come about. He is also very helpful in answering questions you may have from lecture class. If you get Dr. Ish as a lab teacher, you are a lucky person.
He's the G. I love him!
Honestly the best professor I have ever had for Chemistry labs. He is such a kind-hearted individual. He truly cares about his students. If you ever have any questions about lab or even chemistry, he is the one you should go to.
I had Professor Ishwar for two semesters in a row and I am sad to say that the streak has come to an end. If I could take him every semester for lab, I definitely would, he is honestly an angel. Literally the sweetest and funniest man, he is the best!!!!!!
The best professor at SJU. He helps you out when asked for help and is easy to have a genuine conversation with. He was more of a friend than professor but that does not mean that he is not respected or on top of everything. The final was simple enough with everything straight forward and not meant to trick you. He also likes blaze pizza.
I am not sure why this man does not have a 5.0 maybe because someone out there does not believe in protonation, but I can assure you this man was the one who made all of our lives this semester and during orgo positive.
He puts the gang in organic chemistry and if youre wondering where the second g is coming from its the man himself. Never would I thought I would have fun In a lab class nor would I understand anything but professor ishwar made everything fun understandable and easy definelty take him.
If I could fail Orgo lab I would. Just for the possibility of having another class with Ish. Im sad the semesters over because Ishwar only teaches Orgo lab. Best professor St. Johns has to offer. Make sure you dont have a questionable shoe sense when walking into lab or else youll get in trouble. Whoever wears birkenstocks to lab is a bozo.
I love this man more than I love the Bronx. This one time some student from another class thought he would have a higher yield than me for a lab, but with professor ishs encouragment and Well explained instructions I managed to to get a higher yield and a free meal from said student who I know will read this
Literally the best professor at sju. I mean it. So genuine & so kind. I highly highly recommend dr ish for orgo lab! He explains very well (even better than my own lecture professor) and hes very patient when youre confused. And I agree with everyone else, HE IS A GOD. Im devastated I wont be having him anymore for lab. :( CYA AROUND DR ISH
IF YOU HAVE HIM FOR LECTURE, KEEP HIM! One of the rare professors I met in St. John's University who actually cares about his students. He tries to help you as much as possible, but do not take advantage! I wish I could have him for every lab class EVER.
Best lab professor ever. He wants everyone to get a hundred and he's willing to help every single student if he has to. He starts off the class with a lecture about what lab you are doing and how to do it, then you start the lab and he walks around and helps every student. He's amazing and every other lab professor should strive to be like him.
Dr. Sadarangani is a solid choice for lab. He'll do anything to help, and he cares about his students. Just make sure you are prepared for class and are able to follow instructions. You will get an A if you do what's required.
He's the best lab professor out there. There is just so much kind things to say about him. He is always willing to help his students and genuinely cares about them. He gives out very clear and detailed notes. If you don't understand something just ask him and he will help you as much as he can. He is also hilarious. Take his class!
If you get the chance, take him for lab! He is very straightforward with what he expects from his students. He makes it super easy to get an A!
AMAZING lab instructor. he genuinely cares for his students. he is always willing to help us with the lab. and if there is a mistake on your lab report, he'll let you know and let you fix it. got a 100 on all my labs. the pre and post lab quizzes are easy and help you understand the lab. you need to take him!
ishwar is the best!! he's super chill and lenient when it comes to grades. there are pre lab and post lab quizzes for each experiment. the pre lab questions are straight from the lab manual, but the post lab quizzes are harder. the virtual labs are kind of repetitive but it gets easier the more you do it. the final is kinda hard though. take him!!
Hes by far the best professor Ive ever had at St. Johns. He has very clear outlines of every lab and explains everything well in the lectures. I would take him for every class if I could.
Very clear on lab component instructions. You can always email him with questions and he will answer almost right away. Definitely recommend for lab!
I had his class online, and he always recorded the pre-lab lectures and actually showed us how to perform the lab when we had to attend class. His final is open-book and you can find most of the answers in the experimental outlines he provides for every lab.
BEST LAB PROFESSOR EVER!!!! TAKE HIM, YOU WON'T REGRET IT. Super clear grading criteria. Lab report and notebook are all digital, saves so much time. Very sarcastic and funny
GREATEST PROF EVER!!!!!!!
TAKE HIM! Dr. Ish is the funniest and most helpful professor there is. Lab was very fun, his notes helped me understand more than my actual chem lecture. Wish he taught all the labs in school, his class was the absolute best.
Take him if you can!!! Very understanding and helpful in lab. All the pre lab and post lab are fairly easy if you pay attention to lab.
Dr. Ish is the best professor I had in my first two semesters as a pharmacy student. The lab reports are done on a template he gives, the pre and post lab assignments are basic reading comprehension of the lab manual, and the 15 minute lectures he gives before labs are very helpful. Great professor and freshmen are lucky to have him.
greatest lab professor EVER
Great lab professor. I even lost my lab notebook and he brought it back to me :) Take him if you can!!
Dr Ish is amazing. Best teacher I had at this university. Wish he could teach all of my labs. He also has a great sense of humor and loves to crack jokes.
Dr. Ish is the best professor you will ever have in your life. He's the best chem professor there is. His class is super easy to understand, and he goes out of his way to make sure that his students succeed. Make sure to treat him with respect because he deserves it.
Definitely take him!! Best lab professor at SJU. His lectures in the beginning are long, but if you pay attention and take some notes, the lab report will is easy. Goes over post lab quiz answers as well in the lecture, so pay attention. Write down key notes, and use on the final. Prof will help you, not always accessible via email however
Dr. Ish is the best lab professor you will ever have. He's a funny professor that always goes out of his way to help his students. He is the vacuum filtration king and just an awesome spirit to be around.
He does a lecture in the beginning of the class explaining the concept of the experiment we're doing but overall a GREAT professor. You're allowed to use your chem manual + your notes for the final but I suggest you pay close attention to the post LAB questions. They would come in handy for the final! He's really chill! Would take him again!
Hands down, the BEST professor in the entire chemistry department. Dr. Ish is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely cares about students' success. He makes challenging topics easier to understand and creates a supportive lab environment. If you have the chance, take his class—you won't regret it.
Best lab professor! Clear guidelines, helpful feedback, and fun teaching style. Use unstuckstudy along with the lab manual to nail those reports.
Everyone fights to get Dr. Ish as a professor. He is amazing at what he does and really cares about his students. 10/10
the way dr. ish explains everything made lab easier. he was always available to provide help.
he is the best lab prof ever, maybe even the best prof period. he genuinely cares and really wants you to understand and succeed. if you have the chance to, definitely take him! kindest man ever
Dr. Ish is always as chill as a cucumber. By far the most bearable lab professor I've had. That's why he's the MVP! thats why he's the GOAT! THE GOAAAT!
I LOVE ISH! He cares for his students, and he likes to crack jokes. Lab was always fun, especially because I had Dr. Ish for two semesters. He has a clear grading format and great lectures. He helped me learn much more about Chemistry than my lecture professor. For the final exam, the review sheet given is basically the final.
He really knows what he's doing and most students like him but I didn't have a good experience with his lab. He was condescending towards me on multiple occasions and I'm not sure why as almost everyone has positive things to say
TAKE HIM! hes so fun and its clear that he cares for his students. he always answers questions even if theyre dumb. you just do lab report, pre/post lab quizzes and thats it. lab itself is pretty easy and he makes it SO fun. hes so sweet and tries his best to make everyone feel safe and comfortable! hes always there if you need help about anything!
I never expected to have fun in lab. He's great and funny. His labs are very clear, and he is a nice grader. He'll answer any of your questions, even if you ask it 24 times. He cares about his students. If you have an option, I would greatly recommend him! He is lenient, and if you have an issue during lab, he'll always help come up with solutions.
such a great guy. his slides and manuals are so well done too. if you have any questions, he's always there and very patient too. his lab reports are soo straightforward so it's ez to get a 90+ on it unless you screwed up your data real bad. for the final, he provides a review so you know what to look for and everything you print out is fair game!
Hilarious and so easy to pass his class. Everything is so detailed, he literally posts step by steps with pictures and answers every question you have. The lab introductions are really helpful and basically answers the LR and PLQ questions. TAKE HIM.
He's an amazing caring professor. By far my favorite since being here. He posts everything and is very clear about criteria and grading. Hes hilarious and actually makes learning enjoyable. He's so understanding and will work with you if you have any issues. He's who other professor should be like. If they were, then everyone would love to learn.
Dr. Ish is amazing!!! His lectures were so helpful and even helped me with chem lectures. His grading is very fair and clear. Always replies to emails and is accessible outside of class if you need help with chem. Lastly, everything was well organized and planned out in his class. Overall, I would take him again!!
