arrogant and loves the gators

Not helpful!

very rude, not helpful, tas unfair

Ok the ratings i just placed are for EVE, he is rude, doesnt help, and he has 1 mission in life, to hate kids and be a prick to them. however, i do have to say his TA's are amazing i had Chensung Wang and he was the best TA ive ever had, now your work during the year is graded by the TA, the Final Exam made by eve is hard and questions are retarded

Eve is an arrogant, rude, proud (you know what) he really shouldn't be teaching at UM. Seriously, take someone who'll respect you and teach you well. You can't ask him nothing!! he acts like he's doing you this great favoor.

TERRIBLE. thats all.

Needs to change the course curriculum to something more related to what is actually taught in the CHM 201 lecture.

I have never met someone so disrespectful and uncaring about his students. It seems to be a challenge for him to answer even the simplest questions respectfully. Emailed him asking to make up a lab, gave me 800 words of university policy and an ambiguous response, all while managing to be so condescending that I wanted to hit my head against a wall

Terrible. Oversees all the chemistry labs, but they themselves are taught by TAs. Writes the final which is extremely difficult and specific. Not friendly at all. Would avoid if possible. In all, way too much work for a one credit class.

The kind of worthless final that will destroy your GPA. This class almost killed my 4.0 for a 1 credit lab

This only refers to Eve's final exam- which is disproportionately difficult for a 1-credit lab. With 10 experiments, the questions are all multiple choice and roundabout asking "which of the following is false"- things you could only know by just memorizing procedure. Likely the most terrible experience you'll here. "Teaches" orgo lab as well.

The absolute worst experience of my life. The topics covered in the lab manual are quite helpful for both grad school and the MCAT. However, I have never met someone as condescending and unfriendly. Writes the final, which asks random questions from the entire lab manual. I would these labs somewhere else if possible.

absolutely the worst professor not only in the department nor the whole school but since the history of professors the enlightenment era. He should not be allowed in school at all not even for a second. horrible guy and ugly from inside and outside person acts like 10 years with tears his eyes every-time you speak your ideas. DONT TAKE HIM! ugh

He is extremely unapproachable. While every other TA had the opportunity to select questions for the final, he handpicked the questions for my TAs final. Apparently only 1 in 4 students are allowed to can get an A in his labs so he gave our TA a hard final to drop our averages. He also stood outside our lab room and watched us take the final exam.

Super hard especially the Orgo Labs (even though they're not accuracy based). So much work for one credit classes and final is so difficult

One of the most disrespectful people I have ever met in my life. I do not really care what my grade is. This guy acted in a bad way with me because I used a graphical calculator in my last lab quiz. I used to us it throughout the course. He yielded at me and I explained to him that I did not hear him saying that dont use it. He was really the worst

He is not only the worst professor, but the worst person I have ever met in my life. I don't understand how he can be at UM. He is so unprofessional and has nor respect for people. HORRIBLE!

Exceptionally worthless material and overall a joke of a one credit class. Learned nothing the entire semester and seemed as if the entire final was based upon useless memorization.

TAs are great and experiments are okay. Final will make you regret taking organic lab at UM.

Cant get any worse

A 40-50 multiple choice final that requires you to know both the "Making the Connections" and Lab Manual experiments FRONT TO BACK. All for 1 credit. Seriously? The amount of effort required to do well on a 1-credit class final is ridiculous. I offer an alternative: take Orgo I Lab separately during a summer semester at FIU.

The amount of time that is required for this one credit class is absurd, but the ABSOLUTE worst part is the final. Many people have no idea how to study for it. The final is also 25% of your grade, and it's known for dropping people's overall grades from an A to a C. Dr. Eve's grading criteria for this course needs to be revised.

This class will depend completely on your TA. You have to make sure that you have a lot of padding before the final because the final is nearly impossible. Some TAs are going to be harsher graders than others, so watch out and try your best. Again, you NEED padding in your grade before the final to get an A.

All that work for a mediocre C. Watch out for the Final, it will kill your grade. What's even worse there's no study guide for it.

Take a chill pill buddy, no one is giving you 40K a year to fail hardworking students who are ten times as intelligent as you.

The final will ruin your grade. Even if you get an A on all the lab reports and quizzes in lab the final which is impossible to study for will take you down a letter grade.

NEVER take him! Extremely tough grader. He is unfair at all. Not a nice guy. TAs are tough grader too. You spending a lot time on everything to receive a C or D. Confusing grading criteria, they wont explain why it is wrong if them mark ur report wrong. Change another professor if you can .

I missed a lab once because I got into a car accident and when I went to tell him that he all in all said "tough" so I didn't get a makeup lab and got an F on the quiz, the homework, and the next days prelab so that was fun and good

Worst professor ever. Awful man. Horrible person. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, he refuses to help students or even care about the tough situations they may be in. He is incredibly rude, inaccessible and spends more time thinking of rude things to say than he does making his grading criteria which is so confusing and dumb. Rude rude rude!!!

Very bad.... very very bad professor

There was no instruction on the actual material during labs so I don't know how we're going to be given a final exam. Make sure you know when all the deadlines are for experiments.

During the middle of a pandemic Dr. Eve was not understanding or caring at all. The experiments and the worksheets are doable, however, his final was nearly impossible to study for, and he thought it was a good idea to schedule it a day after everyone was traveling home (not even during finals week). There was barely any time to study for it.

The absolute worst professor I have ever encountered. Does not care about students and cares more about his own pride. Awful person. Should not be in charge of labs especially the finals. He is the worst. Does not do anything in the best interest of his students. Not helpful at all never email him he either will not get back or be so condescending

The class isn't bad, just very writing heavy. However, this professor is absolutely horrible. Doesn't care in the slightest about his students and makes that abundantly clear. Extremely disrespectful and condescending, really acts like he's too good to be talking to you, even when emailing him about serious issues. Not sure how he's a professor.

This teacher never provides any useful information, he will give you inexplicable deductions from your assignments but does not write down the exact reasons. He will only write a few points, but when you correct these places, there will be new places where he deducts points, and you never know where your next assignment will be deducted.

This was the WORST class I have taken here. He doesn't do anything whether it be for his TA or students. Talks down to us and tries to act better than everyone without doing or helping in any way. This course makes you write a 5-7 pg paper every week which is so much work then depending on your TA you can have an easy or tough grader.

this lab is unfortunately unavoidable if ur a STEM major but it's still awful. you won't know what you're doing 80% of the time, the time to complete worksheets and labs is short and very precise. honestly depends on your TA but most of them are psycho and the final is based on everything you've ever done, so start memorizing the manual now.

1. honestly depends on who ur TA is 2. not easy to reach unfortunately have to take as STEM major, but avoid at all costs

Dr. Eve's chemistry labs are some of the worst classes you can take at UM. In the lab, you'll have no idea what you're doing most of the time, and a 7-10 page lab report is due every week. All the TAs grade reports and worksheets insanely hard as well. After this, a lab final at the end of the class is given which is virtually impossible to pass.

I hate the class with a burning passion. I don't recommend this professor. Nothing really makes sense, the TAs grade rather harshly, and it's way too much work with short time limits. I'm always curious about what inspires chemistry professors to provide the most mind-numbing work imaginable with absurd expectations.

TAs under Tegan teach chem labs, but chem labs have 0 interaction with him. My TA spent class time with me and gave me my grade, fair and square. Tegan changed it afterward. I tried to get it changed back but he refused and was a complete dick about it. The grade had little impact on my life. But you should know that he is difficult.

Forces students to buy his books. The questions he assigns in his book as homework are vague and brain-degrading when doing it. Taking his one credit class, if you want to excel, you will spend around 1 hour for pre-lab reading, 1-2 hours for complementary video instructions, 2-3 hours for post-lab questions and lab reports per week. Not worth it.

soooo many lab reports. honestly depends on your ta of how easily you will be graded. we had difficult quizzes every class. the exam was terrible and you cant even study for it on top of all your other exams. i did well on reports cause i had a good ta but the exam was awful

Terrible, terrible professor. Tegan Eve appeared only once during the semester during the final. The final itself is ridiculously difficult (average was around an F) and I memorized the entire lab manual to no avail. I do not understand the point of such a difficult final but focus on the quizzes and reports and you should be set for a good grade.

Worst professor at UM hands down. So much work for 2 credits out of class and 6 hrs a week in class. Now in CHM206 he gives quizzes before every lab that are very difficult.

Awful professor. TAs run the class and give quizzes reciting the lab manual down to the last minute detail. Class is about memorization more than actual chemistry. Don't have a photographic memory? Will not pass.

No lab organization, never interacts with students, extremely difficult final for no reason, and took up more of my time than chem lecture despite being only one credit.

The worst lab I've ever taken. TAs can be ok but the general course is disorganized and unhelpful. You don't really learn anything. Also, the final quiz sets you up for failure, almost nobody does well in it.

The class is completely unrelated to what you learn in lecture and is much more difficult than the lecture itself. If I could skip this class I would...

This Lab is very difficult. Most things that are on the lab quizzes were never on the prelab. They test you on the most irrelevant details. The final quiz/exam of the semester is built for failure. Not worth the single credit it provides.

If you value your mental health don't take this lab

In utter disgust and disbelief of this man. Doesn't show his face for the ENTIRE semester, until the last week when he hits everyone with the most impossible final exam they may EVER TAKE. It's literally designed for you to fail, and the average is in the F range. Why he is so determined to make a one-credit lab such a nightmare is beyond me.

Did not see this professor until the final exam. His labs are very hard to understand, and many of them are not even correct in the manual. The lab quizzes are very hard, considering there are questions on there that were not covered in the manual. The final quiz was AWFUL. They are designed to fail students. They tell you to memorize everything.

I hope the school reevaluates this professor. Take this course with a grain of salt because it is set up to make you fail the final while having quizzes and pages of lab reports due every week. It should not be worth 1 credit, if anything, 3 minimum. Regardless he is the only one in charge of chem labs, unfortunately.

It's a 1 credit class. 1 CREDIT. Why oh why did we need a final for a 1 credit class??? Especially a final that's so difficult and references things even the actual chemistry course doesn't cover? Plus, the classes are super uneven across sections, some TAs are super chill while others are extremely difficult.

Zero empathy for students, bad instructions

The amount of work necessary for this 1 credit course is ridiculous. The final exam is near impossible to do well on because the questions are so hard for no reason and aren't covered by any course material.

Simply chaotic from start to finish. The experiments often do not match what the manual instructs, some reports come out to over 15 pages, and the final is 40 hyper-specific questions you will only know by reading the manual cover to cover ten times. If he didn't have a monopoly on the chem labs, I'd take anyone else. But, we have no choice. Sad.

Labs are extremely time consuming and some end up being 15+ pages long. This is frustrating, considering it's only a 1 credit class. I spent 6+ hours a week working on these reports. The experiments are complex and difficult to understand, event after reading the lab manual. The final was ridiculous. Disappointment with the structure of this class.

Eve doesn't teach any labs, they are taught by TAs. All that he does is make an impossible final exam worth 20% of your grade that everyone fails. The exam focuses on minor, random details from his 2 lab manuals making it virtually impossible to prepare for unless you've memorized both of his books. One of the worst professors at this school.

Tegan Eve is by far the worst I have encountered in my life. He's extremely rude and the final at the end is nearly impossible to pass with. It's a one credit class which doesn't make sense as to why there is so much work for a lab. He should be fired from the University of Miami for torturing students and stressing them out like this.

This man was rude especially to me when he had to work with my absences halfway through the semester as I had to leave school for 2 weeks for medical reasons. Anyways, the majority of your grade and experience in the course depends on what TA you get. The final is VERY hard; so specific. The only way to buffer this is by doing well on all reports.

The entire lab is taught by TA's until the final where Dr. Eve writes an impossible exam based on super specific stuff that he put in the lab manual that he wrote.

Eve is a great professor if you hate good professors. Makes the final impossible for a course that he makes his TA's teach.

I performed exceptionally on my lab quizzes and reports just to get a B+ because of the most heinous final I've ever taken, which is harder than the lecture final. Besides that, your grade depends on whether or not your TA is chill. How to fix this? Make him teach the gen chem, orgo 1, and orgo 2 LECTURES. Trash the puka T.eve you're not cool.

WTF WAS THAT FINAL. Did fine in lab. My TA was a little strict with grading but that final would have david goggins screaming "they know me son." there is no need for that final to be that difficult and theres literally no way to prepare for it. On top of that Dr. Eve does even teach labs his TAs do, youll probably see him 2 times all semester.

The chemistry department at UM is a complete joke. There is no reason for students to be getting high A's on lab reports and doing solid on quizzes just to be screwed over by an impossible and hyper specific final. This class will harm your GPA, because the one person you see twice a semester decides to write the hardest questions possible.

Tegan Eve barely shows up but still defines you by a scantron. I got 100s on all lab reports and a 94 quiz avg, but one final exam ruined it. He's arrogant, dismissive, offers no support, and acts like he runs the place. TAs do better. Terrible person, terrible professor. If I could give negative stars, I would. He doesn't deserve to be a professor

Everything about this course is fine except for the final and the insurmountable amount of lab reports. That exam was impossible, but most people have to take this, so brace yourselves.
