I liked that class. He grades as easy as he can. He gives you alot of open book quizes that can boost your grade. I got a B without cracking the books

Dr. Haseltine is definatly NOT an Easy A, if you get an A you gotta work for it. I passed with a low B and I had to really study for the tests. He is very nice and helpful and he really knows what he is talking about. I would recommend him to anyone...but you will have to go to most of the classes and study.

Dr. Haseltine's class is definately not an easy class to get an A. You got to work hard. Keep reading the text book beforehand, and do all the exercise sheets he gives you. The class has weekly quizzes with open book; however, students do not get all 10s. If you want to be challenged, take this course. In my opinion, great teacher.

I loved him. I really liked going to class and learning. while it is a hard class, it is mainly because it is a hard subject. if you atudy you will do well. He always makes himself available to his students and holds a review session (on his own time not class time) before each class. I really liked this professor

Not the easiest subject, even less easy tests. Mechanisms very important to know, but no detail to which one of 6 could be on exam. Still, not too difficult.

I think there are only 2 teachers for this class. The subject is hard, but Hasletine understands that and curves the grades. Gives lots of worksheets online to practice with. Gives reviews and is very good about answering e-mail. You must read the book to answer the m/c q's. Drops 1 test and open book quizzes. He does everything he can to help.

Haseltine is great! I have always disliked chemistry in general, but I found his organic class to be really fascinating. He really enjoys teaching and talking about chem, so if you need help or have a question he's delighted to discuss it. The tests are hard, but DUH - it's organic chemistry! What did you expect? (Oh and he's American! no accent)

This class wasn't the easiest in the world, and it took a lot of effort to maintain an A, but Haseltine is a great teacher. He is very clear in his lectures, and is extremely patient about answering questions. He LOVES his subject and LOVES sharing his knowledge. Go to class, attend his study sessions. He curves & drops lowest tests.

I really liked Dr. Haseltine. The class is incredibly hard but he is willing to help you if you ask for it. Definitely read the book and go to the review sessions that he offers, it helped me a lot. He does really love this subject, he is very enthusiastic about it, and he can be funny and entertaining as well. I think he's a great teacher.

What a great professor!No, he doesn't spoonfeed you the course. It's challenging, but the reward is worth it. Dr. Haseltine is charming, funny, and cares about his students and the course. You get what you put into it.

If you take this class be prepared for an overwhelming amount of whiners in your class. Organic Chem is not easy and Haseltine does a great job teaching it. He is more than willing to help students succeed. thise who complain about his teaching are using him as a scapegoat for not putting in an adequate effort. You need to read the text!!!!

Great professor! He's always willing to answer questions or do another example. He even scheduled optional study sessions the week of exams to work through his study guide with us. Awesome! He gives true/false quizzes, but if you study the textbook before coming to class you'll do fine (pay attention to the green boxes and side notes).

1st off this is Org 2 - not EZ unless you are a genius. He made the topic clear through examples & notes. His weekly quiz helps you stay with the reading & boost your grade. He loves the subj so I stopped hating it. Tests: do the book problems, all of them. Ask questions bring your work to him -he will xplain in english. Read the book be prepared

He has practice quizzes and test for each test and quiz. Quizzes consist of reading the book from the sections he request. If you read the book you should do well on them. The test are kinda confusing. Make sure to study at least 5 hrs a week. Multiple choice questions are confusing hardest part. Drops one test and 2 quizzes. Online homework was ok

he's not bad at all but his tests are..be ready to study like a nerd. tries to be funny which helps when everything else is not making sense.overall grade for him is a B coz he tries to make students get good grades e.g by giving a retest if the students did not do 2 well.

This class is very difficult. Slacking isn't an option if you want to pass. He is a very good professor and will meet with you to help. I suggest doing that! Read the chapters he gives quizzes and STUDY! I got a B and worked for it! Everything builds off the chap before so make sure you know it!!

Great teacher. Not for lazy or dumb students. His online practice materials help a lot. His tests are not regurgitation but actually test whether you understand and can *apply* concepts. I think he explains everything clearly but you have to pay very close attention and not be texting during class!

Very difficult teacher, but an "A" is possible if you work for it. You MUST attend all lectures & do all practice probs. Some students think they can show up for the quiz and then leave before lecture starts- then they complain when they fail his exams. I got an A after getting a 67 on the final. He's tough but he gives you the tools to succeed

took him for 3361. I ended up getting a C in the class. HOWEVER, that is my fault. this course is hard. the professor is fair. he teaches BUT you MUST (MUST) do extra practice in order to comprehend material. you must not have a "feeling" of understanding but must understand the whole concept in order to do good. fair professor though.

Do not take all of these post as being accurate. Yes his class is not easy but if you do your work and ask questions then you will be fine. He tells you how to pass the class. I got an A and I know several others in the class did as well. You have to put the time in but he knows his stuff and so will you if you pay attention! I liked him

This is a very hard class but this professor makes it great. He is obviously very intelligent and knows what he is teaching very well. He gives you many practice pages, practice quizzes and practice test to help you study. Read the textbook, attend class, and study and you can get an A. Your effort will reflect your grade.

he has his own methods of teaching but the way he explains things is very satisfactory. He may seem hard but if you read the book thoroughly you are good to go. if he makes the test hard he knows that too and in the end he does gives the curves based on the difficulty of the test. if get a chance should take him as he is good and knows what he does

Absolutely a great professor!!! He gives practices pages, exams, and quizzes all written by him. They help you to learn his style. No BS from him. He gives you the tools to succeed all you have to do is follow them. Very helpful and always checks to make sure you're getting the information.

Haseltine moves fast and doesn't stop. You HAVE to seek him out to get your questions answered, and he's INCREDIBLY helpful and a GENIUS. Do NOT miss class if you can help it, your notes are VERY important. His 3361 class picks up RIGHT where 3360 left off. READ THE BOOK, the quizzes EVERY WEEK really help your grade!

AVOID HASELTINE if you are not good with chemistry. He often times talked way over students heads. He gave many resources to use to study, but nothing compared to what he tested on. Haseltine is actually a nice guy, however he is just too smart to be teaching. Do not take him if you are not good at chemistry. I'm warning you..

It's not an easy class, but Dr. Hasletine really wants students to learn. He loves what he teaches and tries hard to make it enjoyable.

To clarify what everyone on here is tripping about, yes, you have to read the text before class, take a quiz, then learn. BUT the quizzes are truefalse. His tests are challenging though. But if you actually care about getting the education you're paying for then take Dr. H cause the only way you'll pass is by developing major study skills.

He is known as the hardest O-chem professor at Kennesaw. The man is absolutely brilliant and a wonderful teacher, but VERY difficult. 3 Tests (lowest dropped) plus the final. Do not take him if you are looking to just learn the bare-minimum. In his class you will either learn the chemistry thoroughly or you will not do well.

He is a GREAT professor. He knows his chemistry and is a really smart guy. My personal favorite chemistry teacher at KSU. He is always willing to stay after class and help you. That being said you do have to prepare for his weekly quiz by reading the chapter ahead. His tests are hard but do able. If you study you can do well and learn alot!

He is the BEST. Yes, he is tough. Yes, the material is rough. But if you actually want to learn and do something hes the one to take. I would recommend making a few friends in the class to study together. It is a lifesaver. Trust me. You will have to put a lot of time into it but it is worth it especially if chemistry is what you want in life.

Dr. Haseltine is an amazing professor. He really knows his chemistry and is friendly and approachable. The tests are extremely difficult but it's organic 2 so that is to be expected.

The general consensus about Professor Haseltine is, for the most part true, his test are hard as hell, and you can forget about getting extra credit. That being said, in my opinion, one of the best teachers I have ever had. If you want an easy grade then don't take him, if you want to learn it, then take him.

Really great professor but tests are extremely hard. I took his class over the summer and we had a quiz every day we did not have a test. This class takes work but, he is a very nice guy and will help you best he can. 3 test: drops lowest. 11 quizzes drops lowest. 1 final: mandatory and no midterm.

Take this class over the summer!! It does ruin your summer, but if you focus you will come out with a better grade than if you take it in the Fall or Spring. He curves all of the tests and lowest test and quiz grades are dropped. Don't get behind! He assigns readings for every class and a quiz over the reading.

My advice? Drink a lot of caffeine and stay sharp in his class. He moves fast, but is a very clear and thorough lecturer and loves to answer questions. Do everything to review for the exam that he puts on the review checklist. Go to SI. His tests are very difficult but he does curve. I got a 48 on one test and that was still a C with the curve.

Dr. Haseltine makes organic chemistry come to life. He is clearly passionate about what he does, and yes it's a difficult class, but o chem is hard by nature. He is an interesting fellow and his lectures are beautiful.

Dr. H is such a great professor & really loves Organic chemistry. He really strives for all of his students to have the same passion for the subject. His tests are very tough, but he is the best professor I've had. If you commit the time to the class, you will do well. Didn't do as well as I would've liked, but would I'd definitely take again.

definitely not for the weak of mind or spirit. You will need to put in a lot of studying outside class, and even then don't just expect an A. He knows his subject and if you're willing to put in the groundwork you will walk away with a true understanding of the material. He also has a pretty straightforward grading policy.

I took Haseltine for my third attempt at o chem and I might have a shot at a B this semester with the curved exams. Read the book! For spring semester, it was a quiz every Thursday. If you took decent notes on the chapter ahead of class, the lecture was a breeze. First time I've actually understood what was going on! He posts old exams to practice!

There are teachers that make you regurgitate what you learn and there are others like Haseltine that make you apply it. Definitely one of the toughest classes I have taken. Be ready to put in a ton of work for this class. weekly quizzes (T or F) come from the book, tests come from lecture. got a 94 in his class (80 was an A, 65 B, 55 C)

He is such a great guy! He is willing to go out of his way to help when you need him too. He puts up old tests and worksheet for practice. I took him over the summer, yes it was very hard, and I had many many late nights studying. He curves the tests and it was my first time taking o chem. I would take his class again. Very sweet man!

Haseltine is a fantastic professors and expects the very best out of his students. His quizzes come straight from the textbook, word from word. Organic chemistry is a hard subject, but his test are very clear and straight to the point compared to other professors who over complicate it. He curves grades based on class performance.

Very difficult class but he understands that and doesn't expect everyone to be experts. Generous grading and curving. I would definitely read the material he talks about in class AHEAD of time. Class is really just him reviewing the material, not teaching it. Fairly helpful guy, funny and obviously understands ochem extremely well.

Dr. Haseltine was absolutely amazing. He made a notoriously hard class seem like a breeze. He has a great way of explaining the concepts, and he gives very generous curves. He really knows his stuff about o chem, and he really wants everyone to succeed in his class. I wish I could take him for orgo 2. TAKE HIM, he's awesome!!

Dr. Haseltine is difficult to comprehend at first. His tests are extremely difficult but he does curve a whole letter grade or more for each exam. No homework, quizzes or other grades. Only 3 exams and the final - one exam may be dropped. Be prepared to learn the material on your own. Mechanism problems are graded very harshly. Study hard!

Dr. Haseltine is an awesome organic chemistry professor. I took him for both 3361 and 3362 and i excelled in both classes. I do understand the negative feedbacks but you have look beyond that, persevere and work hard to earn a good grade. You start to enjoy his class if you learn to adapt to his teaching style. I do recommend Dr. Haseltine.
