Dr. Evans is a great professor. She takes time to explain the information presented in class and she always answers questions. She is passionate about teaching and she genuinely cares if a student is learning in class or not. I have learned a lot in her class and I would recommend her to anyone taking chemistry.

Dr.Evans is a fabulous teacher, who really wants students to understand the material. Although the tests are sometimes difficult, she grades fairly and gives points for showing your work, which she uses to determine if a student understands the material or not. The recitation quizzes are also very helpful and are a great test prep.

Professor Evan's general chem I class is ALOT of work. Expect 4 moderately difficult exams, a midterm, a final, a group research project, online homework and weekly recitation quizes at 8 AM. However, she is a good professor that teaches material quickly, but well. Cares about her students and is always willing to help with questions.

Dr. Evans is a great professor overall. If you have any questions, stop by her office during office hours for help. She grades partial credit on the exams, so at least try the problems! Her PowerPoint slides are very clear, and the Sapling homework reflects her exams well. The final is a standardized exam, so having that extra curve helps greatly.

This class is awful. Please don't take it unless you want to drop all your other hard science/math classes to focus on this one. I went to so many office hours, did the weekly problem sets, the hw, and its so difficult I cant tell you how many tears I've wasted on this class. She has 6 exams...6 exams is inhumane.

Her exams are hard and she is not very cooperating and considerate when it comes to her students. She's very kind and sweet and outgoing when you speak with her but she's very harsh and extreme. She gives so much content for a harsh exam and maybe 2ish extra credit opportunities for like 1 or 2 points because the class is already failing

Guys don't take her anyone saying she's good is crazy. It's not the class itself, yes, chemistry is very hard already so chemistry isn't the problem she is. Her as a professor is the issue. Yes, she give so much content and material but her exams make everything you studied for go down the drain. I talked to my therapist about this class.

Half exams are short response and other half is multiple choice. She does not do any partial credit for work on multiple choice and good luck on those she puts options that trick you hard. Short response she's stingy with giving some credit for showing work. Also, her writing in class is so messy i had to take a pic of every slide and zoom in A LOT

Gen Chem 2 is tough but it should not be stressing you out like this. Dr. Evans is very sweet but you have to try very hard in her class to get close to where you want to be. Her exams are hard. MC and FRQ. You are given extra credit but it helps you to the minimum. She gives an ACS final as well.

Accept your faith and move on. I'm studying for her final as if my life depends on it meanwhile she's grading our exams and giving so much material like her life depends on it. Chemistry is hard so I'd recommend you take a professor who will make it easier for you. Not trying to be like the other reviews but this class actually gave me depression.

I hate having to leave such a bad rating especially when the professor is very sweet but unfortunately she isn't the best fit for this course. She's great she understands the material pretty well she can probably ace her own exam but for us students who are working day and night to afford tuition it's very sad and humiliating being her students

If you double breath during an exam she will come haunt you and 60 years worth of your families generation down the line.

Cried myself to sleep every night remained in class to tough it out hoping for the best but I think I was delusional. This class fr made it clear don't follow your dreams and give up. Everyone taking chemistry is passing and meanwhile everyone taking Kendra is not sleeping or eating to pass with the BARE MINIMUM, and somehow she's chill with that.

Dr. Evan's is super sweet and very helpful. Although her exams are tough, if you do the practice sets you'll be fine. You really have to apply yourself to get the grade you want. She gives extra credit and is very accessible outside of class. She does give the ACS which sucks but it's curved heavily.
