he has a god complex, makes people feel dumb when they cant figure out his example problems, and instead of actually teaching he does example problems the whole class period.

If you have to take chemistry, avoid him at all costs! His lectures barely cover anything that you are expected to know for the exam, also he doesn't tell you anything about what is going to be on the exam. His exams are unbelievably difficult for no reason and he doesn't curve it. You're better off taking it later with a different professor.

You could actually miss class because he doesn't teach. His lectures consist of stories relative to his life/career and when he finally goes back to the topic of chemistry he explains absolutely nothing. Students will fail the exams unless they seek outside help. I want to cry bc of how bad he is. I wish I didn't have him as a professor :(

Really wish they had a better option for chem professors since bio is such a popular degree here. Your grade depends on how you do on the tests. Homework helps but not until the grade is put in at the end of the semester.

Worse professor ever. He doesnt teach. He makes you feel stupid. No extra credit. Very hard exams, your grade depends on exams 1-2-3 and final. DO NOT TAKE HIM

Dr. O is a science guy. He is not lenient and not personable. When the hurricane hit and every student in the class began to fail, he recommended we all drop the class. If everyone is failing, you are doing something wrong.

This man is by far the most precocious and egotistical man I have ever known in my career as a student. Ever since Hurricane Irma, the man has done next to nothing to help students get back on track with the occasional reprieve from the homework by extending it a few days. Worst yet his lectures in no way prepare us for our exams. An awful teacher

Dr. O is very good at teaching theory and concept but he doesn't teach much in regards to formula and technical aspects to chemistry. I asked for help a number of times but I was simply assured that everything I would need was in the book or the lecture. I don't like fumbling in the dark to get answers, his lectures do NOT prepare you for exams.

Dr. O may be great with science, but I do not believe he did everything in his power to help his students succeed. Considering hurricane Irma, he could have gave us extensions on homework but told us to drop the class if Hurricane Irma has affected you in a way where you cannot handle the material any longer. This is not acceptable by any means.

Classes in the beginning of the semester consisted of his talking and going off on unrelated tangents we werent supposed to see till chem 2 or higher level classes and the second half consisted of giving us handouts and milling about the room while we taught ourselves. He did nothing to prepare us for exams and we were in the dark the whole time.

He explains the material in a much more difficult and confusing way than the book does. He is very arrogant therefore rude. Students do not ask questions because he avoids the answer and instead makes them feel stupid. Too much homework due before tests so you have to sacrifice studying or hw. I passed because I completely taught myself!

This man made me switch my major. Terrible. Does not explain anything. Straight A student and I got an F in his class. There is no roundup for grading and a C is not a 70, it's a 73. Don't do it.

Don't take this professor.....

If you're contemplating taking this professor go on campus and ask around, I guarantee no one will advise you to take him. I saw smart academically inclined students FAIL & have to retake it. Does he actually teach? The answer is a big NO. Does he speak for an hour about actual nothing, and roam the room waiting to intimidate students? YES!!!!

This is chem 1, aka one of the easiest classes a hopeful pre med could take. But, Dr. O could make you switch your whole outlook. I saw so many students enter this class as an optimistic pre med and subsequently decide to not pursue a science major. This was not just 1 or 2 students, this was half the class. An A in chem 1 is easy, but not with O.

Tons of OWL homework added with his terrible teaching is a nightmare. Tests are difficult and the average for them is usually failing because he doesn't give enough time. He cares more about telling you how smart he is than really helping you understand the material. Don't bother asking questions, you will get rude replies filled with arrogance.

Worst professor of my life. Ruined my A/B reputation. Teaches his lectures like you already know the information. Don't do it... take this course at your local community college.

If you don't teach yourself you will not pass. I had to take an full online course to teach myself while being enrolled in his class and going to tutoring. He expects you to read and learn the material on your own. He is smart but unable to explain the material. I got a C in his class and it was the second C on my transcript.

Lemme tell all you newbies this; Chemistry is by no means a difficult subject if you have the motivation and perseverance to learn and apply the information. However, Dr. Osegovic does an excellent job of making the class impossible by NOT teaching the material. Also, he was apparently asked to leave USF Tampa, so what does that tell you?

So, as you can see, many people do not like this professor. From my prospective of taking him, here is why he is overall just NOT a good professor: 1. he has absolutely NO communication or interpersonal skills 2. he hates being wrong (aka, hates being told the truth) 3. this man is the epitome of a cancer cell going into stage three that wont stop

Dr. O is the absolute worst professor I have ever had! His class average is and F and the highest scores on tests are D's. He does not teach or explain. He does not care about his students success and when you ask him a question he will not answer it and make you feel stupid. Passing his class requires 25/8 work. Your GPA will suffer! DO NOT DO IT

You will spend hours of your time doing homework and studying for tests just to get a failing grade. I have spent this semester studying for this class upwards of 20 hours a week and I am still trying to raise my grade from an F. He refuses to tell you what are on his tests. If you want to keep your 4.0, it's not going to happen. Tests are online.

If you enjoy torturing yourself for just a C , you should take this class. The amount of homework is impossible to complete when you are taking multiple classes. The teaching is poor. The lecture, homework, and exams have absolutely nothing to do with each other. I advise you to not take this class. I have never felt so discouraged in my life.

I love chemistry but this class is a waste of time and money. He uses ALEKS and its time consuming. ALEKS has to be the stupidest idea ever! He made me feel like I was dumb. I tried asking questions and hes not answering the question in a certain way. Its hard to explain. Hes horrible. He doesnt teach. The textbook is online and doesnt help.

This class doesn't have a final, or mid term. Instead the class has a quiz each week. These quizzes are worth a lot since it's the only testing portion of the course. He doesn't lecture very well. If you are good at teaching yourself, this will be an easy class for you. If not you will struggle. Overall this professor was tough, and not recommended

Do not take this class at all costs!! He uses a website called ALEKS for his homework assignments which will take hours of your time and provides no help on his quizzes. If you enjoy putting all your effort every week into maintaining a C then this is the class for you. Worst class I have ever taken!!

Never take with this professor he is very rude and he doesn't like when you ask any questions. Someone in my lab had a panic attack while doing an experiment. This was the worst experience and was very stressful semester.

We use a program called ALEKS which can be helpful, but then the concept quiz questions don't even pertain to the work we are learning on there. The program is time consuming especially since you have not been taught the information. Chapter 12 ALEKS will be due, while he is lecturing chapter 11, then the chapter 10 concept quiz is due that week.

NOOOOOO DON'T DO IT. IT'S NOT SLAY. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF. I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH. I'M SO EMO, PLEASE HE'S NOT BABYGIRL AT ALL!! There's so many assignments and ALEKS is so hard and it takes forever. If you're not good at chemistry and want to be happy don't take this class. :(

Really did not enjoy taking this class. A ton of busy work and learning on my own. Taught with quizzes and rarely did examples of problems. ALEKS was an absolute nightmare and often wasn't helpful in learning source material. The professor was overall was reluctant to answer questions. I found myself confused 90% of the time.

Do not take his class if you want to learn chem. He does not give lectures, not very helpful, uses teams for communication, and a waste of a drive if you commute. Even if you only want the class for a grade and already know chem do not take him. So much busy work, ALEKS. Quizzes are easy if you learn chem from someone else or use youtube.

This professor will make you feel like you're not as smart as you actually are. He's that bad. I am a solid A/B student and I'm struggling to get even a C because he expects you to devote all of your time to chemistry. Good luck taking him if you have any other classes, let alone a job. He doesn't give enough time for his tests either.

very rude & condescending. By the end of the semester, my whole lab table (10 ppl) are coming together and taking turns to ask him questions because he evades answering & is rude. The lab manual (he wrote!) is riddled with errors. Still possible to get an A, just a terrible learning environment. I'd rather commute to Tampa than take him again

If you want to take this class to get an easy A, then take it, but beware of the rude and snarky comments. You can be the nicest student and he will still have something to say to you. Don't let him catch you doing something like having a water bottle or a phone out(even if you're not on it) unless you want to get called out and dragged for 10 min.
