She's a bit weird, awkwardly laughs, and is kind of a dork. Other than that her curriculum is decent, she could be more clear though. Luckily I enjoy chemistry, so it was easier for me, but I could see the rest of the class strugling. Don't take her if you don't want to work hard, she expects competency, logic, and some smarts out of everyone.

As long as you come to class and take good notes you should be fine in her class. She does not like if you ask "dumb" questions--things that you could find if you flip open your book.

Good professor. She makes sense out of the book with a lot of practice problems, and she walks around the room to make sure you understand what's going on. Her exams were brutal, and she likes to throw curveballs on them. If you study and do as many problems from the book and from the labs 3 times, you might get an A.

Professor Perrot has pretty good lectures but the only problem is her exams. They are usually nothing like the practice exams she gives out. The concepts she talks about in her lectures come up in the exam but in ways you don't expect, be ready to understand every topic she talks about by using outside sources. She curves exam scores.

Took during the spring 2023. Lectures online with quizzes and labs in person. Quizzes are done together so you will always get 100% and she gives explanation to labs. Lectures were hard sometimes because they are videos but wasn't bad. Tests are similar to the study guides but note "fun fact" content on lectures for multiple choice questions.

Mary Perrot wrote the book on CHEM 2! Need I say more? The truth is that professor Perrot is an outstanding master of chemistry, her explanations are spot-on, with lectures that are gripping and exciting to be a part of. Would definitely take one of her classes again!

I am not sure how this professor even has this high of a score. Can be rude, feedback tends to not be that helpful, and does not like to answer questions. Avoid this professor if you can but if you have to take her utilize outside resources.

Lots of homework

Was unreasonable when grading labs. My group and I would have the same answers and always got drastically different grades. Easily agitated over little things. Can be pretty condescending if you ask for help. Exams are nothing like the practice ones.

Professor Perrot has little to absolutely no patience. If you ask her a question, she will make remarks under her breath and sometimes even out loud to make you feel dumb. Her practice test is not anything like the actual test. Class says hybrid but you have to come every class period. no late work unless you have a dr note. Would not recommend

- She can be very rude and snappy. I've personally been yelled at a few times - She paces her class pretty well so the class itself isn't too difficult - Her study guides do not match the exams - The ALEKS assignments can be pretty lengthy and annoying - She has favorites - Not going to lab takes a toll on your grade

Passionate / great grading syllabus / strong mix of a good and bad attitude within a day, especially during labs / a really bad attitude towards students who had trouble doing labs / sometimes kept class 15 to 45 minutes late to finish lab / super nice during exams / : professor walks around to help, but with either good or bad attitude. Scary..

The professor has clear favorites and often shows disrespect to students. If you ask any questions and you are not a favorite, she will try her best to embarrass and humiliate you. It is best if you attend class, as this will ensure you receive participation points. She does, however, give out snacks before exams.

She's a little rude, when u ask her she's sarcastic. Her practice exams weren't really helpful. The exams are very difficult.
