She is strict but fair. Put in the effort and she will take care of you, and make sure you attend her office hours if you can. Most of her test material will come from the slides themselves, this was a large learning curve for me. Over all, she is a good professor and will help you if you ask and show effort.

Dr. P is a hard grader, but she is also funny and if you go to her office hours she will explain it more in detail if it didn't make sense in the lecture for pre-lab.

I've taken Dr. Panangala for lecture and lab. Organic Chemistry is a really difficult class, yet Dr. P is very knowledgeable on the course. Her lectures are intensive and fast paced. I would recommend reading about subject matters before lecture and then after as well to keep up. This is not a class where you can just show up and get an easy A.

There is 35 minutes of lecture and overview of the lab that will completed in your lab section, it is then followed by a quiz (9 overall) that is usually about 3-5 questions covering lecture and lab materials that the TA will grade. Dr. P can be a tough grader on exams but she is funny in class and really wants everyone to succeed.

This class was confusing at first, but after a while, you get used to it. There is a quiz after every lecture about the previous class and the previous experiment. This lecture really helps one understand the labs from the week in-depth, and she gives us warnings and other information. She helps a lot if you just ask.

You must be willing to put in more effort than you are used to in order to be successful in this class. Although organic chemistry is hard, Dr. Panangala does an excellent job of explaining the material in a way students can understand and her expectations are fair. Dr. Panangala is always willing to help her students when they ask!

This class was very confusing at first since there is a lot you have to turn in for both lecture and lab but then you get used to There is a quiz after every lecture. Even though there was a lot to cover Dr.P was very helpful in helping her students in figuring out different ways to study and always opened her office doors for anyone.

ochem 1 lab is a huge workload (≈4hrs in lab/prelab, 3-6+hrs/week at home) doing pre/postlab, studying, and problem sets (especially unpleasant). Dr. Panangala must work within the confines of the lab manual which isn't good but she is very caring, gives some extra credit, is accessible outside class, and really wants to see her students succeed!

She gives a lot of assignments that you have to do at home. Doing the lab manual is not bad but is a lot of writing. Quizzes every pre-lab lecture, not too bad but is on what you just learned for the day. There is a midterm and final but she makes sure to be accessible outside of class so you can be prepared.

The lab for Organic Chemistry 1 has been a challenge to adjust to after taking general chemistry. It is heavy in its workload from lab and lab-lecture. Dr. P. does her best to assist students with the material, but it is a lot to cover in such a short period of time. I will be taking her for organic chemistry 2, hard class, listen and participate.

Dr. P is a great professor. She does her best to help students prepare for the course and lab. Since the pre-lab lecture is only 50 minutes, and you only meet once a week, there is a lot of material to cover so make sure you read through the lab manual and the slides posted before every lecture.

Dr. Panangala is a very sweet and patient lecturer. She will answer questions anytime and wants you to succeed! For 2123, there are quizzes every pre-lab but they are pretty straightforward regarding labs and presentation slides which I feel helps further understand the labs.

Dr. Panangala is a great person and professor. She is very patient and understanding. She takes the time to answer students questions and makes sure that we know what to turn in for lab or lecture(lab) the next time. Problem sets due every meet and short quiz at the end of class.

Dr. Panangala is a joy to learn from. She makes some funny jokes while lecturing in pre-lab. She goes pretty fast because there just isn't a lot of time in Pre-lab, however; if you ask questions, she will clarify to make sure everyone is on board. You just have to speak up and ask questions otherwise you may struggle.

Dr. Panangala is a good professor, makes the class dynamic and explains difficult concepts in a clear way if you stay engaged. She's always available during office hours and truly wants her students to do well. That said, you definitely have to be committed to the class. Go to every session, study after class, and make sure to review the textbook.

Dr. P is friendly and her lectures are clear and easy to follow. All PowerPoints and lab reviews are posted online, which really helps. The workload is heavy but manageable if you stay on track. The hardest part, in the beginning, was the in-class quizzes since it's hard to know exactly what will be on them.

OCHEM 1 Lab is very time intensive and will take up a lot of your study time during the week so beware. Pre labs/post labs due weekly, quizzes every week and weekly problem sets that take up to 4+ hours. That being said Professor Panangala is very kind and cares that her students do well. I would take this class with her again.

The prelab lectures are informational because experimental factors change and make the quiz easier for you. The 2 exams and weekly quizzes count for a large part of your grade. The wet labs are a bit confusing, but most of the time your TA will explain the lab. The pre- and post-labs are easy; just answer the questions accurately for a good grade.

Dr. Panangala is great! I only had her for the prelab lecture, but she truly does want us to succeed and is extremely open to walking you through difficult concepts and/or covering material that will be tested on the lab midterm/final. Organic chemistry is hard, but getting an A in this course it is extremely doable!

This professor is very interactive with the students the material needed for lab. The quizzes are basically the slides she puts on blackboard.

As long as you show up to pre lab lecture and study for your quizzes and mid term and final you will do fine but some effort needs to be put in.

Professor Panangala was a pretty chill professor. She gives quizzes at the end of each class, I wouldn't say they're hard, but they are helpful to study for the midterm and final. Also helpful for your grade.

Really good teacher, every dry lab she explains what the experiment would be and how to do it, she will have a small lecture with a quiz at the end every week. The quizzes are not hard just pay attention to the lecture and remember your lab content and you will pass them.

Orgo is difficult to begin with, but Dr. P does her best & she's very good at what she does. There are handfuls of assignments with the Lab but if confused, she's accessible outside (Office Hours, or by appointment) & helps break it down. She's genuinely funny in lecture, likes to hear about our experiences from the lab the week prior. Study Labs!

Overall great professor! Quizzes can be hard if you don't study but just stay on top of the content and everything will be fine!

Dr. Panangala was a great professor. I gave her a four only because the lab is a lot of work for a one-credit-hour course. Every week, we had a quiz, a pre-lab write-up, a post-lab write-up, and a problem set to be completed. Make sure you stay on top of your work and study for the prelab quizzes, midterm, and final.

Professor truly cares if her students understand the curriculum. If not, she will take time to reinforce concepts. The lab is a lot of work for a 1 hour credit, but the professor teaches well and tries to reduce the workload as much as possible.

Dr. Panangala truly wants students to understand the curriculum and even stops during her lectures every few minutes to make sure everyone understands. The assigned problem sets are long and take awhile to complete, but they help! Do not procrastinate and get lab write-ups done early to be successful in lab. This course requires a lot of studying!

Come, prepared, don't be lazy. Take time outside of the lecture. And you'll be fine.

Great professor! She explains the material clearly and is always willing to help. I definitely recommend taking her.

For dry lab Dr. P explains what the experiment that week is and how to do it, she will have a small lecture with a quiz at the end of every class. Do the problem sets every week and stay on top of pre/post labs. That is your best way in preparing for the quizzes and exams taken in the course!

Dr.Panangala is a great professor, i would say she does go at a fast speed in her dry lab lecture, but if you have questions, she does not mind repeating what you don't understand. Strong accent. There is a quiz for the last 10 min of the lecture, so study, be prepared, and listen.

Dr. P is a amazing professor and she genuinely likes what she does. The course is hard overall and you will need to study. The pre-lab goes in a fast pace but she will repeat herself if needed. 9 quizzes at the last 10 minutes of pre-lab, 6 pre-lab writeup, 6 post-lab write up and 7 problem sets with the lowest grades being dropped for each one.

Dr. Panangala was great throughout the O chem I lab. She is very accessible over email and through office hours. Pre-Lab lectures are clear and straightforward, and she gives plenty of opportunity for questions, gave extra credit at the end of the semester, is understanding, and genuinely cares about each student doing the best they can.

Dr. Pangala uses lecture to go over material directly from the quizzes. Make sure to take good notes on the lab procedure and any examples, and you will do fine. This is a textbook heavy course, but getting the zubrick will make the material manageable. There are weekly problem sets too, so if you are worried about your grade these add cushion.

Dr. Panangala is a funny and caring professor that will help you, if you talk to her. During prelab, she teaches a lesson about spectroscopy and lab reactions. She teaches fast and speaks low so it's slightly difficult to hear her in the back of room, so read blackboard before class and pay attention to lecture to prep for quizzes every week.

Dr. Panangala is a well rounded teacher with a clear outline of the class and desire to see her students succeed. She can be a little fast paced, but you know what is expected of you every week. She also does her best to accommodate students and give the most points possible (if you show work!!!). Overall would take again

You must show up to class. It is a lot of work, but manageable. Dr. P does a good job at explaining and is funny at times. Overall, a pretty good professor.

I enjoyed having Professor Panagala as my lab instructor. She's super funny and made a lot of the curriculum easier to understand compared to lecture. Her quizzes were fairly easy as well. As long as you do your lab reports and study the spectroscopy units, you'll do fine. As of now, I have an A and will take the final the next day.

If you have her for lab she is very good at explaining and would def take her lectures she cares about her students

Attendance isn't technically mandatory but there's quizzes during every class, so for your sake, please for the love of God go to class. They're usually over the lecture of that day or the previous lecture.

She's a professor that really cares especially if you go to her with any questions or concerns she'll always do her best to help. I will say it's difficult to figure out what to study for the pre lab quizzes. The problem set week to week does seem to be a lot but as long as you do it ahead of time you'll be fine.

She's nice and will reexplain things if you ask. Not really anything bad to say.

Dr. P is a very kind and thoughtful professor. She is always there to listen to you whenever you need her and you can actually tell that she is listening whenever you speak to her. She has a great sense of humor whilst she teaches which help lighten the slight harshness of learning organic chemistry. I wouldn't mind taking another class with her!

She was very good at teaching the material. The class itself can be difficult, and it moves quickly since there is only 1 lecture a week. Just keep up and always attend classes. Quizzes are given every class, but they can be an easy way to balance out your grade, and they contain important information.

Dr.Panangala is nice and wants her students to learn. There is lots of material so her lectures go by quick so pay attention. She has quizzes at end of class each week. Pre-lab write ups, post-labs, and problem sets due each week. Lowest of each is dropped. 2 exams(not dropped)study concepts. Manageable but study ahead of time, lab is independent.

Dr.Panangala's lectures go by quick due to so much material so pay attention. Prelab write ups&postlabs due at lab.Problem sets due at class and quiz is taken at the end. Lowest of each is dropped. Two exams study structures,concepts,&procedure. Study as you go. Lab is independent so make sure to know what you're doing. Ask ?'s, office hours/email.

This class is a lot of work and it's a hard class. She does a good job breaking it down, my only complaint is that sometimes I had a hard time understanding her due to her accent.

Good for lab tries to explain to the best of her ability because o chem is really complicated. If you miss class, make sure to get it approved by the dean, and she will let you retake the lab you missed and the quiz.

Lectures a little bit too quickly, but does encourage you to see her personally if there are any problems.

Genuinely wants students to understand the material. Extremely helpful and always willing to explain material if you reach out.

quizzes are not that hard. just study your labs and structures. Tests are broad but questions are not that difficult. Explained relatively well. Does have a bit of an accent but you can still understand her pretty well. Very nice and will help you if you ask.

Great professor, the midterm and final are hard and are worth majority of your grade. Hard to understand material if not already covered in lecture. Overall very good teacher, always looked forward to o chem pre lab.

Dr. Panangala is a great professor. This lab is not light but Dr. Panangala gives you all the resources to prepare and succeed in the class. She is also very accessible and extremely helpful for questions over the material. You can tell she really cares about her students. I highly recommend taking her lab section.

Overall the class is difficult but she definitely made you feel more at ease with the upcoming labs that week and explained and simplified them really well. I can tell she genuinely cares if you understand the material as she will ask several times if things are clear or not. She's also really funny so that was a plus

Good professor, there's a lot of material we have to learn in a short amount of time, and she takes the time to make sure we understand.

Dr. P was super nice, I liked her a lot. She was very understanding. She graded a little tough with the midterm and final but as long as you studied it's not that hard to pass. You can go to her about anything and she will try to help you. She will explain things even if its just 1 person that doesn't understand, just speak up. She makes class fun.

This class is genuinely not easy but it's not the worst class ever. As long as you show up to class, do the pre lab write-ups, and the question sets, you'll be fine in the class.

Good professor, prepare to study and read lecture and lab materials outside of class. Takes time to explain things again when someone is confused on the material and makes sure if things are clear or not. Overall good professor and class.

There is a quiz every prelab so be ready. You have to pay attention to lecture since thats what's gonna be on the quiz.

Dr. P is a very nice professor. She's fun and clearly cares about her students. Though it is a lab, it feels like a second lecture, with test and quizzes to go along with it. It is completely doable, you just have to be willing to put in the work required.

Dr. P is great in my opinion. You can really tell she cares about people passing the course and she cares about the students themselves. You definitely need to attend the pre-lab classes as she gives out quizzes every week, but the quizzes aren't super difficult if you're paying attention to the lecture. Overall, great professor.

I am Speachless

Dr. Panangala was a caring lab professor and tried to help everyone out in class. There is a quiz and problem set every week, two exams, along with the pre-labs/post-labs that are graded.

Amazing professor

Great professor! Just two midterm and quizzes every week of pre lab
