Horrible!! i think she just wants to get her job done without caring if the students understand. cant understand her half of the time

i dont' kno what she's talking about half the time. very strict and doens't curve.

This woman is one of THE worst instructors of chemistry I have encountered in my life. First of all, she has a strong African accent that makes her difficult to understand. Second, I believe she doesn't curve. She just doesn't care about students.

PLEASE LEARN TO SPEAK ENGLISH OR WE'LL ALL FAIL

I was planning to major in Chemistry. After my first lecture I changed it to English. Ah, at least I now what I am majoring in!

Absolutely horrible. I have never had such a hard time understanding a professor. She teaches the material as if we should know it already. I go to class hoping to understand the lecture and she makes it impossible to follow along...horrible!!!

worst teacher ever.

I have never had this much difficulty in a chem course. Taking this class with professor Sadik is demoralizing and makes me contemplate dropping from pre-med or binghamton all together. I have never felt so much frustration. I hate this class.

She makes the simplest concept impossible to understand. I could learn chemistry from an english prof better than I could her.

This professor make chem impossible. I had a pretty good background in chem coming into this class but the way she teaches i just get totally lost. It's not helped by the fact that she's impossible to understand.

It was almost like this woman was speaking Portuguese. I'm from New York--me no speaky Portuguese. Our class averages on tests were often failing. She grades way too harshly to give everyone a fair opportunity to do well.

She is the worst teacher of my life.

HORRIBLE Teacher. Couldn't teach of her life depended on it. Everyone is failing. Why doesn't SUNY hire better teachers??? If you can AVOID her. Definately one of the worst teachers I have ever had.

She know's what she's talking about, the only problem is that she can't communicate it well in a lecture.

Shes such a bad teacher. Even when shes trying to be fun and funny and interesting, she fails miserably. She tried to make the class fun by trowning candy at people but that just made it really stupid and confusing.

She is definately the worst teacher I ever had in my life. Her tests have absolutely nothing to do with what we are learning in class. You can do all the work and still fail miserably. Avoid at all possible costs. Pre-med is not worth it!

worst prof ever. she cant teach esp lower level classes.

one of worst teachers ive ever had. cant understand wtf she is saying. tests impossible. no point in going to lecture. all you can do is take some adderall, sit down and read the book, and even then ull prob still fail. aweful teacher avvoid her class if you can

never went to lecture, but im pulling a solid B+. definitely read teh textbook and do problems she assigns and actually understand the stuff before doing capas. get a tutor and you'll be fine. professor does suck tho

The worst teacher i have ever had. Makes the class impossible and can not understand a word she says. I stopped going to lecture because she makes absolutely no sense. Do not take any of her classes

Goes too fast, hard to understand, seems like she doesn't know what she's talking about sometimes

If u have her i feel really sorry for u...her tests are nothing like what she does in class.. they're impossible..and lecture is boring as hell theres no point in going becasue u wont understand any...

She is such a dreadful teacher. Sure, she knows the stuff, but she is completely unable to disseminate information. She is incomprehensible. Anything I learned, I learned from the textbook.

she sucks, the end

She is very smart, but a horrible teacher. If you want to do well, study the text. You don't even need to go to class because you won't learn a damn thing because you can't even understand her. If you also don't understand something on your own, and you ask her about it, she tells you that you sh

Bit*h from hell. Period. THE worst teacher I have had in Binhamton. What is WRONG with the administration. You will learn NOTHING.

homework assignments, quizzes and labs are easy but tests are completely different from all three of those and are much harder.

Prof Sadik is very difficult. Her lectures were pointless to go because you can't understand her and she moves too fast. Her tests were too hard when compared to her lack of teaching skills. Recommend thoroughly reading the text and doing tons of problems to do okay. To survive, get a good tutor.

she doesn't curve, so it makes it impossible to get a very high grade in the class. she got a bad reputation this semester (fall 04), due to her unfainess with regards to grading.

Horrendous, decides not to curve the class at all which caused 11 A's in the class, hard to understand, pointless lectures

got a B+ in fall of '04, deserved an A like everyone else.

She tried hard to teach the class well, but I felt that at the end of the semester, she gave out unfair grades. But, she's a nice woman.

Class is good, BUT grading is VERY unfair. WE ALL deserved higher grades. Very un-helpful. I spoke with her many times and it didn't pay off!

Very Unhelpful instructor, fails to teach any basic chemistry principals

SHE SHOULDN'T TEACH INTRO GREAT RESEARCHERS MAKE HORRIBLE PROFESSORS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Out of a class of approx. 600 people only 11 got an A or A-. The absolute WORST professor in Binghamton.

my god, closest thing to the devil in binghamton. Cannot properly be described without explitives. Recieved a 1 C and 11 A's thusfar in my undergraduate experience. The C came under Dr.Sadik and her esteemed Chem 107 class. You can study your ass off, every hour of every day, and unless you get lucky, you will not do well. Goodluck.

everything stated about this teacher is correct. I ran thru the gamut of titus,pueschel,starzak, newton, and bane with relative ease. But this one is in a league of her own. Gets joy out of ruining dreams. Be afraid, very afraid if she is your teacher. On second thought, drop the class before enrolling, just turst meon this one

2 years after taking this course and i am still bitter. Infact, im getting angy typing at this moment. Absolutely horrible, especially as an intro teacher. Terrorizes kids with impossible tests and will curve down becasue she feels we didnt try hard even when the average grade is a 41. She should never be allowed to teach again..ever ever ever

She is a horrible professor. Not only that, her TA's are even worse.Dont take this class unless you are required. If you do, dont,I repeat dont take Elizabeth's lab section. She is the rudest and meanest TA I have met in my 3 years at BU.If you ask question, she will act like you have committed a crime.She Doesnt help at all, instead shows attitude

Dont take this class unless you have to. The professor is incomprehensible and going to class is completely useless. Tutors are great or prior knowledge of chemistry also works. I started doing better in the class when i stopped going to class and started reading the Chemistry for Dummy's book and it helped. And the TA's office hours are a must.

Horrible, I learned more from Highschool chem then i could ever possibly hope to learn from this woman. The main reason I go to class is to attend the one right after it, which takes place in the same room.

Alright heres the deal with Sadik, shes a chill teacher but she flys thru her lectures and it takes you the first 5 classes to understand 3 words the woman says... once u understand her accent you are lost and it is far too late to have any chance at getting anything above a B unless u are the chem master of the world

She is a very smart woman, but her accent is so thick that you cannot understand one thing that she is saying. Also, her lecture notes are not at all helpful. Reading the notes are a waste of time. Read the textbook.

I'm about to take her final in two hours. It's going to be on everything I "learned" this semester. Good luck if you're taking this, cause you'll never get above a C+. Tests are impossible. Lectures are pointless. Buy a "Chemistry for Dummies" book and you might get into the B range. A's are impossible.

Just not a good teacher at all. She ignores kids questions, and her lectures do not cover everything that we need to know for her tests. I suggest just reading the text book.

Terrible! She was a nice woman and you could tell she was brilliant, but she was not a good teacher at all. I would recommend bringing your textbook to lecture and taking that time to read it. You will be much better off that way, honestly.

so bad...just wait for the urge at the end. you cant understand her and she does not make fair tests

She is a very nice person and clearly cares. But she rambles on about her personal life and does not do a good job stressing what is important. Definitely go to class as she will tell you test answers. But sometimes her answers are wrong or she is not clear which is right. She is a great person, just not a great professor.
