Very professional instructor with detailed, clear lectures. Textbook not used very much. He uses slides and handout/worksheets almost extensively. Difficult class but if you put in the study time and attend, you should do very well. One of GCU's best instructors - but be prepared to work.

Dr. Deo was the best chem teacher I ever had! If you take him, go to his office to ask questions any time you can.

Dr. Deo is an excellent professor. He moves quickly through his lectures but we will answer any questions that may arise. Be prepared to work hard in his course and take advantage of office hours if any questions need answering. I highly recommend Dr. Deo for chemistry

Dr. Deo is one of the best teachers that I have ever had. He is very intelligent and does a great job teaching the materials. He is easy to understand and follow along with. He offers office hours which are very helpful. I strongly recommend his as a teacher.

Dr. Deo is a great professor, he gives you worksheets to prepare for exams and lets you regrade certain assignments. He is very involved in his classroom and makes sure everyone knows what is going on.

Had him for both CHM 113 and CHM 115 and has once again proven to be an excellent professor. Actively engages with class, willing to clarify anything you do not understand. I would recommend him to anyone taking general chemistry

Dr. Deo is a WONDERFUL professor, he helps out his students the best he can. It is a very challenging class but he is hands down the best professor I have had so far at Grand Canyon University.

Dr. Deo is truly a very good professor. I learned what I needed to learn for my future career. His class is challenging, but he will help you understand the concepts. I highly recommend his classes.

Professor is very helpful, gives study guides, and lecture slides! Offers House Hours, study guide is exactly the same as quiztests!!!

Professor Deo is one the of the best chemistry teachers on campus. He makes the class understandable for all students.

Dr. Deo is a great teacher and a great guy. He is willing to help you if you are willing to put in the work. He is a super nice guy and he makes some corny jokes. I did not find the class hard at all because he teaches the material well.

Deo is an amazing teacher and knows what he is teaching. Be at his class at every lecture and you should do fine. It is not hard to get an A, you just have to work for it like any other thing.

Great at lecture. If you are struggling, go and ask questions. He is very willing to help. Quiz corrections- do them. Make sure to go to class and SIGN IN. He will take away participation points if you don't show up or sign in on ALL class days. Overall, a great teacher. Would take his class again.

Dr. Deo is so cool!! He was probably the most helpful teacher I had this semester! His lectures are always helpful and always align with the quizzes and tests. The quizzes and tests are very easy if you study the practice quizzes and tests. He is so much fun and always cracks jokes during class! I tried to take him for 115 but his class was full :(

Professor Deo is a great mentor and really makes sure you understand the material. Exams and quizzes are tricky, but practice versions are also completed and there for you to utilize. Very funny, but also serious and stern in his word. Would recommend.

Deo made chemistry fun and he was able to explain the material in a way that I was able to understand. His class is always my favourite and I can't wait for Chem 115 with him again next semester!

Deo is a great teacher! I highly suggest that you print off the lesson plans for the lectures, they are extremely helpful. He makes chemistry interesting and fun to learn. Can't wait to have him for Chem 115

I didn't understand how many students struggled in this class. It was easy. Do the practice exams correctly and check with other students. Learn the concepts behind each problem. Go the extra mile and do the suggested worksheets. Work hard and you'll be just fine.

Amazing professor! Be prepared to work hard, and to learn a lot. Take advantage of office hours, he is very helpful. Don't use your phone in class!

His class has a good structure and his lectures are very clear.

Great professor, really smart and helpful. Truly cares for your education. Would take again.

Deo is a great professor! His lectures are enjoyable, and he is always willing to help. The practice quizzes and exams he assigns are extremely helpful.

Dr. Deo is a great professor (the only good chem 113/115 professor at GCU). He is very clear when he lectures and gives material to help you follow along, he has a great sense of humor, and he has regular and well-attended office hours. Yeah, you have to work to get a good grade in the class, but it is certainly possible if you put in work.

Dr. Deo is one of the most admirable professors I have had. I took him for chem 113 and 115 and found that he truly cares about his students and the education the receive. The class is well structured and requires hard work. Would definitely recommend.

Dr. Deo is an amzing professor. He is very clear about what he wants. He is also very good at teaching and will make things very easy to understand. Chemistry is a hard subject for a lot of people, but with Dr. Deo, I did not struggle.

He is a great chemistry teacher. Very straightforward about what will be included on the test. He is always available outside of class. He makes chemistry understandable. He expects you to show up and pay attention. Excellent teacher. I am taking him again.

Dr. Deo is the best! He's really funny during class and is straightforward when it comes to the content. He makes the material easy to understand and if you don't get it he's pretty helpful in office hours. You will enjoy his class and you will learn. If you put in the effort, try your best, and ask for help, you will do well in his class!

Dr. Deo is an amazing professor. If you have taken high school chemistry, regardless of how well you did, this will be an easy A. There are quizzes; however, he provides worksheets that outline the quiz. Exams are easy it is just the quizzes stapled together. He really knows his stuff. Definitely recommend!

clear and understandable. test material is what we go over in class

Dr. Deo cares about his students, he wants everyone to do well. He uploads notes online that follow the powerpoint exactly. He gives examples and worksheets that are exactly like the quizzes and exams. Talk while he is talking, expect to be called on, that's what you get for being rude. He's super funny if you pay attention to him, and he's great!

Dr. Deo made chemistry so much easier than I remember. Chemistry was a little rough in high school but his lectures made the lessons simple. As long as you pay attention and do the worksheets, you should be fine. The exams are exactly like the quizzes, just different values. The notes he provide really help, he's also really funny!

He is a nice teacher and he seems to know what he is talking about. Make sure you go to class because participation is taken and this can make or break your grade! Do the worksheets for each quiz and the topics to review and you will be just fine. His lectures seem to take forever and sometimes his voice can be very monotone.

Professor Deo was super good! I enjoyed his class a lot and he had a funny sense of humor. Print out the Lesson Plans for the week because he goes through those in class with you. Also the worksheets that he provides are very helpful and everything on the worksheets are on the quizzes. I would highly recommend him!

Deo is a solid teacher. The format of his lectures is awesome, he basically has you print out the lecture notes and fill in the blanks as you go along. The quizzes are based on stuff you learned from the notes. You have homework every weekend, but he makes chemistry a lot easier than it is. Dry sense of humor. I'll likely take him again for CHM115.

Professor Deo is amazing! Before a quiz or exam he provides you with worksheets that are really helpful. Be sure to always follow up on the lecture notes because they are pretty useful.

Dr. Deo is a fairly good teacher. He does a good job of providing concise and mostly clear material for the student's use within the standard rubric. He even goes so far as to provide lecture notes with which the student may follow. Study guides are always available as well.

Dr. Deo is a very funny professor. Even though the course he was instructing (Sci-150) was redundant and unnecessary, he made it bearable. He is easy to contact. I recommend him; he knows what he is talking about. I specifically picked him to be my CHM-113 instructor for the next semester.

At first he seems uptight and rude, but he's just a sarcastic person that cares about his students and shows it through sarcastic humor. If you ask for help he is is willing to give it and will give time for students to ask questions before quizzes at the beginning of class. Be sure to do the study guides before quizzes and you'll get an A.

Deo is amazing. His lectures are always very clear and he does a great job explaining the material. He can be very sarcastic at times, but overall he is very funny and does truly care about his students and their success. I found this class to be easier than my HS chemistry class, but I know some struggled who didn't have a lot of CHM background

Deo is by far the best teacher here at GCU. He has a sense of humor which helps when learning about chem. He prints out class notes for us to fill in during class which is very helpful. He makes sure to answer any questions and he does not belittle anyone for asking questions. I 100% recommend him!

Professor Deo is great! His lectures are good and he gives you material to help you follow along. He also helps you prep for the quizzes and exams by giving you worksheets to practice problems on. With all the help you are given it is really easy to get an A in this class with minimal effort.

Deo is a solid choice for a Chem professor. He does have a very dry sense of humor but it grows on you. The class does have two major cumulative exams, with the midterm being 230 points so beware. He makes lecture handouts for students which are actually very helpful in studying. He is not very helpful during OA, I would suggest going to the IA.

Assignments usually have 3 parts to them, 1 being a 500-750 wc answer. Dr. Deo is quite funny. The problem here is the course, not the professors. You'll be tested on bio, chem, and physics, so use resources given. Course wasn't interesting, but it was somewhat helpful. He gives helpful note packets. Def pick him because he is fun and understanding

Professor Deo is one of the best teachers I have had. He teaches clearly, provides excellent notes, and wants to see his students do well. The only downside is that he is not very accessible outside of class. He gives tips about upcoming quizzes and tests and provides you with all the resources you need to succeed. Definitely would recommend him!

If you go to office hours he will help with anything you are having a hard time on. Lectures are straight forward and correlate exactly to tests. Funny and very sarcastic personality.

I had a diffrent teacher for chem 113, and because of him I thought I hated chemistry because it didn't make sense. Dr Deo made me like chemistry, I went from being a C- student as far as chemistry goes to getting 100% on the final. Chemistry is still hard, but I understand it much better now.

Deo has dry humor, but he's the best chemistry professor I have ever had. I took 2 years of chm in hs, but I finally understood chm with him. He's so good at explaining things to you. Use the lecture notes, and worksheet problems, and GO TO OFFICE HRS, those are so beneficial. I'll be taking him for chm115 because he was such a solid professor.

Cares for his students, would take again. Has a good sense of humor, and properly prepares you for quizzes/exams.

Professor Deo is a must have when it comes to Chemistry! He cares about his students and ensures everyone is learning but also having a good time. His sense of humor helps a lot. He also provides students with notes and resources necessary to succeed! I would definitely take him again.

Dr. Deo uses handouts that you have to print out before class and fill in during class. If you do not show up to class, Dr. Deo does not post his lecture slides because it is important that the students show up to class. I would suggest Dr. Deo to anybody taking Chem 113 or Chem 115.

Dr. Deo is an overall good professor. He posts handouts that you have to print out so you can follow his lectures during class. This is SUCH a helpful tool you get from his class that you won't get from any other CHM professor at GCU; take advantage of it! It's not an easy class but if you work hard, you can get an A. Use all the resources you can!

I failed chemistry in high school and was very worried to take it in college. Randhir Deo was a great professor to have because his lectures are clear and he gives students printable copies of his lecture slides with blanks so that students can fill them in as he lectures. He also supplies worksheets and attaches a key with all the work shown.

Dr. Deo was a good professor, he was funny, but his lectures were very dry. I felt like the class was super easy in the beginning so I focused more on my other classes. Work hard to do well in the begining so that when the second half gets harder your grade won't suffer too much. Also, the IA's are helpful when you don't understand things.

Dr. Deo values questions and feedback. Lectures are easy to follow. Homework and optional review packets are relevant and super helpful. Quizzes and exams on are sometimes scheduled on Fridays before break with no exceptions for rescheduling. No technology is allowed. The class shouldn't be too challenging if you paid attention in high school chem.

Take Deo if you can! He gives out note takers for each unit and they are SO helpful. Do the homework and the review worksheets, this will set you up for success on the quizzes and exams. STUDY! Chem is hard no matter what, but Deo gives you all the resources to be successful.

Dr. Deo was an amazing professor! Super helpful with his lectures as well as funny- which helped enjoy chem. Super easy to understand & I would definitely take him again!

I love Deo! He really cares for his students and he has dry humor. He is a great professor to have for CHM. He makes lecture worksheets for you to print out before class so that you're not copying everything from the slides down, you are just filling in the blanks. BUT STUDY HARD!! Chem is not easy, and I did not study as hard as I should have.

Let me just say, CHEM IS HARD. And at the pace you're going, it can be easy to fall behind. You have to put a lot of time and effort into it cause lecture is heavy. Deo makes it really easy to understand and takes it slow. Gives multiple examples which I loved. The ACE center is very helpful. Don't procrastinate and good luck, haha, you'll need it.

Deo was the BEST professor I've had in my two years of college. He knows chemistry like the back of his hand and knows how to make it understandable in every way. He is funny and is willing to help you in class with any question you may have. His class is very easy to pass with an A if you study. Wonderful professor all around. TAKE DEO.

Dr. Deo has a unique way of breaking down Chemistry concepts so that they make much more sense. It is quite obvious that Dr. Deo is extremely intelligent and knows exactly what he's talking about in lecture. I would HIGHLY recommend taking this professor :)

He is a good professor but I needed more explaining I came into his class very nervous because I am not good at chemistry and trash at math, but seeing the IA's weekly helped. He is very clear on when homework is due, when quizzes are, and what to expect. The quizzes are exact problems (with different numbers of course) as your homework and notes.

Take Deo if you can! He gives out lesson plans and worksheet problems that help a ton when it comes to preparing for exams and quizzes. He does cold call a lot which is the only thing I do not like about his lectures.

I had Dr. Deo for two semesters. He made chemistry very easy to digest. One thing to beware of in CHM115 is chapter 17: you WILL need extra help, so go to office hours.

Professor Deo is an amazingly knowledgable teacher. I love getting leads of their respective departments and he really shows that he deserves to be where he is. I did have a little trouble understanding some of the concepts, however, that could be fixed with additional reading. I am taking CHM115 with him in the fall. He's the best choice for prof.

Deo is a great professor. He knows what he is talking about and he also gives lesson plans which are very useful

Deo is pretty cool. He likes to crack jokes from time to time and the lesson plans are a lifesaver. He'd be even better if this class wasn't half online because the IA comes off as cold. I wish he'd go over practice questions in class but he's still a good professor. This material is TOUGH and he makes you work for it, which I respect.

I would recommended getting Deo because he provides lesson plans and worksheets for the quizzes and exams. There was never anything on the quizzes we didnt go over and his IA was very helpful. Overall this class was an easy A as long as you put in the effort!

Professor Deo is a great professor. Most everything you need to know is in lectures. He provides guided note-taking sheets for students. I highly recommend reading the assigned textbook chapters. It really helps. Pay attention in class and ask questions. He's definitely a solid choice for this course.

Professor Deo has a deep understanding of the material he teaches and can help you without looking at notes or anything. I needed help in class with another question and he was able to thoroughly walk me through the question and was able to answer any other mini questions I had. He is great and one of the best professors, especially for chemistry.

Dr. Deo is the BEST chemistry professor! Dr. Deo does a great job at covering a great amount of material in class. He has very organized notes and announcements for the students to follow. As far as I am aware, no other chemistry teacher at GCU has notes for his students to follow go along with the lectures. He is also witty from time to time.

Professor Deo is an amazing professor. This class is heavy, but his lecture notes are so helpful and he is always helping and even repeats some things for us. He has a very clear grading system. Lots of homework, but if you think about it, it only helps you with your grade. Deo is a genius for chemistry and he is one of the best professors at GCU.

One of the best professors I've had, he explains things really well and goes through a lot of examples. He does use all the class time and has tests and quizzes taken on your own time outside of class, but they are pretty straightforward. I would recommend him, I had a weak background in chem and he made it easy and understandable!

Deo is a great professor because he knows what he is doing. His lectures are really easy to understand. The quizzes and exams were based on the lesson plans he provides, for us to take notes in class. He gives good feedback and will definitely help you if you need it. Would definitely take him again.

He has clear lesson plans that are fill in the blanks that correlate with his lectures. His tests are calculation heavy but not horrible if you understand the concepts. I would take his classes again.

This professor knows the material very well and made O-Chem easy to understand, which is difficult to do. There is a lot of homework and there are quizzes almost every 2 weeks but they are pretty straightforward.

Dr. Deo was a great professor. For a class like Chem, he is the best kind of professor to have because he explains the material thoroughly and goes through lots of examples. Ask questions if you have them; be prepared to answer questions during class. He has a good sense of humor and keeps the class engaged. 100% recommend, I'm taking him again!

GREAT LECTURES if you do the lecture note outlines, you'll pass

This is my first time taking him and he is amazing! He is so funny and a great professor. Chemistry is definitely a class that you have to study for but Deo makes lectures very fun!

Deo is truly a gem of a professor. I have learned so much in his class this year, and I would not be understanding chem like I do if it wasn't for him. If you attend his lectures and listen in, he gives all the information that you need to know for the practice quiz and then exams. He is an amazing teacher that I would recommend to any student.

Deo is the BEST chemistry teacher I have ever had. He explains concepts in a clear manner and provides lesson notes plan that go along with his lecture. He really cares about us as students and genuinely wants us all to succeed! The class is organized and lots of resources are provided. If you want and A and work hard for it, you'll get it!

Professor Deo has a great teaching style and I really enjoy how you actually understand the material during lecture. As long as you are willing to learn Prof.Deo will help you. Between the assignments, material, and quizzes he makes sure that you understand the material without overloading you with work. 10/10 recommend for CHM lecture.

Highly recommend taking him for Chem113! He made the really difficult topics understandable and makes chemistry interesting.

Dr Deo is the best! He makes chemistry entertaining and explains difficult concepts really well. Yes, the class is hard, but that is to be expected for chemistry. I would take another one of Dr. Deo's classes in a heartbeat!

Dr. Deo is THE BEST GENERAL CHEMISTRY PROFESSOR at Grand Canyon University. He is clear, concise, and fair with his exams. If you have the chance to take him, don't hesitate. Take him!

Professor Deo is by no means the worst professor you will ever have. He definitely knows what he is talking about and explains the material very well during lectures. The class is difficult, especially if this is your first time taking a chemistry class. The class is difficult, but Deo does his best to help explain everything to his students.

He's great

He is the absolute best professor when it comes to chemistry. He is straight to the point and looks like he loves his job. If you are able to, take him for both CHM113 and CHM115. I use to hate chemistry but love it because of how Deo teaches it.

Dr. Deo is an incredible teacher! The material was dense, but he provides so many resources and is there to help his students succeed. His lectures boiled down concepts to be easy to understand, and he made clear which information you needed to know to do well in his class. If you put in the time, you will do well.

Honestly one of the best chem professors I've ever had. Lectures are easy to understand as long as you pay attention. Deo tries to make sure you understand both the conceptual and calculation aspects of the subject. Only thing is, he's heavy on participation, and you need to take notes on paper or tablet (no laptops). Definitely take him though.

TAKE DEO!! Had him over the summer and he made an accelerated course easily understandable. As long as you study the practice quizzes and take the time to study the powerpoints, you'll do well. He fills his lectures with jokes and is always there if you need extra help.

I have a lot of respect for Deo. He really is an expert in teaching the content. The content is tough so be sure to use all materials given and never miss a class. Expectations are clear and not hard to meet. I hate Chemistry but I would take again if I had to because he made it easy.

Easily one of my favorite professors at this school. Even though we had little time to go over the material for the exams, he made it very clear of his expectations for the exams. The study guides help massively! Will answer any questions you have. Also, this class is fun. You learn how chem is applied in the real world.

Deo is great- I made sure to take his class again. He explains content very clearly and has fill in the blank notes you follow along and do practice problems with. He provides TONS of resources (worksheets and study guides) so you are able to get more practice in areas you struggle with. Always helpful and kind. 10/10 recommend for any chem class

I had Deo for CHM 113 as well and I have to say he is a really good professor. The lectures are filled with notes and example problems. Be prepared for HW and an activity every week and practice quizzes every 2 weeks. Lots of tedious work, but a great professor.

Dr. Deo is an amazing professor. He really makes sure his students understand every part of a unit and goes over every type of calculation you will need for tests and quizzes. He is very heavy on participation but as long as you turn everything in and show up you'll be chillin. 10/10 recommend Dr. Deo he is an amazing teacher.

Deo is a very easy going guy, and is very easy to understand. He goes into great detail during his lectures, and gives more than enough time to take notes on his slides. I have never enjoyed a class more than with Deo.

Dr. Deo is very knowledgeable. He is the course lead, so he knows everything that will be on the tests and can prepare you for them! His lectures are really good, and he is actually really funny. I have heard/experienced that he isn't the best at office hours, but his lectures are usually so good you don't need to go to his office hours.

I had Deo for CHM113 and CHM115, and he is the best gen chem professors offered at GCU. It's a difficult course, but Deo's lectures made it easier because he emphasizes where students often get stuck or make errors. His office hours is not the best resource for tutoring, I highly recommend him to any student that needs to take general chemistry!!!!

Deo is fantastic. He is clearly very knowledgeable and cares about his students. I absolutely adored his IA; she was very helpful during office hours. Lectures can be intense & are packed with information. I usually had to record the lectures & listen to them a second time at home to fully grasp everything. Study the practice quizzes.

Easy to digest lectures, easy quizzes and exams (study the practice quizzes)

CHM-113 is a decent class, but Deo really did a great job when I had him. I enjoyed his humorous remarks during class, and his caring attitude toward his students. He also gave so much helpful outside information to help you prepare for quizzes and tests. I would rate him higher if I could.

If you are ready to learn and pay attention in class, take Deo. He is really good at chemistry and he passes that off to his students. Getting an A definitely took more effort than other introductory chem classes, but it was worth it. You will know the subject well which will prepare you for the rest of your science classes.

He's a great professor, no complaints, I love the way he formats his lectures and classes, he gives you all the resources you need to pass. Dont fall behind or you will get lost and not pass.

I took Deo for 113 and 115 because of how great he is. He provides all the necessary resources to understand chemistry and do good. He cares a lot about participation for good reason, if you don't attend lecture and follow along with notes you will fall behind. There's a lot of mandatory homework but it helps in the long run for quizzes and tests.

Deo is the best chem teacher at this college, but there's only so much you can do to make chem easy. He lectures the entire class and participation/submitting notes is crucial to maintaining a good grade. He gives opportunities to challenge grading and give opinions through testmoz. This class sucks but he's the best prof to take for it!

Deo is a fantastic professor. This class is challenging, but he does a good job at walking through the materials at a pace that is not too hard to follow. Some people describe his as super intense, but he is truly the best chem prof I've had at GCU.

CHM-115 is very math based. Deo is known for not pouring a lot of time into teaching concepts, but he does tons of practice problems which will prepare you well for the quizzes and exams. If that interests you, take him. Some feel he is a bit removed, but I like how chill and randomly hilarious he is. Do not expect an easy A, but I would recommend.

Dr. Deo is difficult but extremely worth it. I actually understood the material because of him and enjoyed the class. Be prepared for weekly discussion questions, notebook submissions, and homework in mastering chemistry, and practice quizzes. The homework is heavy and tedious, but that is a department thing, not Dr. Deo.

This is the best chem teacher at GCU. All the other chem students I know who don't have him wish they did. He teaches all of the content quickly, but covers all of it and makes sure we do a lot of practice problems so we know how to do it. Utilize office hours, as this is a hard course, but Deo wants you to succeed. He's also very funny.

I took Professor Deo for both CHM113, and CHM115. He takes a while to get used to, his accent can be difficult to understand and his lecture style is somewhat different from others. The general chemistries are typically the first "difficult" courses that people take, so be ready for a lot of work. Deo is amazing, and will make sure you understand.

He is a good professor and person, but sometimes he does not go over the important things that he should teach. He also sometimes assumes that you know the material, so be prepared. Participation matters. I would recommend he just be prepared to sometimes teach yourself. Also, be aware of the small details that are not in the lesson plans.

Dr. Deo is the best professor for CHM 115 since he provides lesson plans that are guided notes to fill out during lectures. He does require notes to be submitted each week for participation but I found this beneficial since it forced me to actually pay attention and take notes in class. He does an excellent job explaining complex topics.. take him!

Dr. Deo was a great professor that gave his students everything they needed for us to be successful. His lecture notes, coupled with practice quizzes and amazing lectures helped me to really understand the material I needed to know for the quizzes and exams. TAKE HIS CLASS! You will not regret it! Plus, he is easy to understand.

He didn't really go into depth in his lectures and waits to post them until right before the exam. However it is really difficult to take notes because he lectures so fast. The exams are difficult because they are all pretty much short answer. The content itself isn't hard, its a decent amount of memorization.

He is very smart and so sometimes doesn't accommodate confused people. He moves through the content super fast so you have to put in a lot of time outside of class to keep up and understand. Great teacher and enjoyed his lectures. Sit in the front and don't miss any classes. Be involved and you will do good. Lots of office hours if you need help.

Professor Deo's CHEM115 class is challenging but rewarding. His lectures can be tricky to follow at first, but the guided notes and practice problems are invaluable. Unstuckstudy was a lifesaver for exam prep. Attend every class, do the work, and you'll learn a lot.

His notes are fill-in-the-blank (super easy to grasp) and IAs are amazing. The class itself sucks, but find a good study group and you'll pass. fill-in-the-blank

Professor Deo was a really good professor. He was funny and walked through each topic where he definitely knew what he was talking about. He walks through practice problems if they arise and gives students time to do certain problems on their own time to learn the material. Overall a 10/10 and am looking forward to taking him for CHM-115.

Deo is probably the best chemistry professor. The class is difficult, but Deo does as much as he can to help make the content easier. Guided notes, extra worksheets, etc. He's a nice guy and is available for extra help if you need it. This is not a class you will skate by in, you have to put in the work to get a good grade.

Deo is one of the better chem professors, but the class is still very difficult. At times, I felt like he wanted us to fail..but whatever. He explains things decently well, and gives practice quizzes to help prepare for the actual quizzes and exams. Definitely utilize office hours, you'll need it

Dr. Deo is the best general chemistry teacher, in my opinion at this school. After having him for Chem I and Chem II, I can say that with his fill-in-the-blank lecture notes, the practice quizzes he gives, and supplemental information, he gears everyone up for success in the courses he teaches! Take this professor, you will not regret a single bit!

Out of all the gen chem professors at GCU, Deo is the best! His fill-in-the-blank style notes are amazing and they make lectures easy to follow along and pay attention to. CHM-115 is a hard class that you cannot get behind in so be prepared to apply yourself and show up to class!

I loved Dr. Deo so much. He explained the content well and was on top of posting assignments and grading. I loved being in his class and made sure I had him for CHM-115 the next semester. He gave us fill-in-the-blank notes for lectures, practice quizzes, and worksheets for each chapter to help us study. Attendance counted for participation points.

Dr. Deo's course was rigorous but rewarding. He offered amazing office hours, reliable IAs, and “fill‑in‑the‑blank” notes that saved me. He posts detailed announcements and actively engages all 90+ students. Despite its challenges, he's a fantastic professor—take his class and lean on your peers; they're your best resource.

He was probably the best professor I had this semester, he was really good at explaining the concepts and would have print out and fill in the blank notes which made it easier to take notes. In addition he also had practice quizzes which really helped with the preparation of the quizzes as well as the exams.

Dr. Deo was overall a good professor. Sometimes we would get ahead in coursework, and so quizzes weren't always aligned with what we were currently learning, which I found tough. This is a hard course to pass but if you put in the effort and use the resources, it's definitely doable.

Please don't let my grade scare you or think Dr. Deo isn't a good professor, chemistry is just hard and it was harder for me than for most. With that being said, Dr. Deo's class was productive and he made certain topics easier to learn and understand. He gives many recourses if you need them. Pro tip: leave your phone in your bag until its over lol

Deo is one of the only good chem professors here. Lectures are ok, but ALEKS is not helpful. Just memorize the notes and worksheets he gives you and you might have a fair chance. Good luck

Well organized and knowledgeable professor. He is a nice guy and a very clear professor. I would take his course again.

Dr. Deo was an incredible professor for Chem 113. The class is definitely tough and the quizzes and tests are worth a majority of your points. He does give out plenty of practice problems that you can do but aren't required. He also posts fill-in lecture notes that follow exactly what is on the tests and quizzes.

Dr. Deo is great and knowledgeable, but the lectures were a little stale. Also, the use of ALEKS in the class sucks. Don't do any of the ALEKS assignments until the last second. Then, do just enough to get the grade you want.

Deo is a great professor! Very knowledgeable. Unlike other chemistry professors, he has super helpful fill-in-the-blank notes. His lectures are very clear, and he provides numerous resources to help students study for exams/quizzes. I recommend the worksheets and putting a good amount of time into studying outside of class. TAKE HIM!

He has really helpful lectures and prepares us well for quizzes and exams. He gives lecture notes and worksheets that are really useful for preparing us for the quizzes/ exams. In my opinion the class was very hard, but Deo gives all the resources and help to succeed.

Deo is an amazing professor, and from what I hear from my friends with different chem professors he is THE one to get. He's great at explaining some difficult chemistry concepts and makes room for anyone to ask questions if needed. Chem II isn't easy, so you have to work hard but he is there to offer help if you need it.

I had Randhir for both Chem 1 and Chem 2. I liked him a lot more for Chem 1. This is a tough class, but my top homeboy Randhir makes it at least a bit easier. All the material is more focused on engineering, so as a biology major, I really struggled with it
