Shes pretty cool and caring BUT only 3 exams all of which are long and take up the entire class. There is no time to check your work or get stumped on anything. No quizzes but discussion counts for 10% so show up. She has her own book that has all her lecture notes but she just reads off it in class. Can drop an exam but then the final is 50%.

Dr. Greene-Johnson is a super sweet lady and wants her students to succeed. However, there are only 3 tests and the final so you have to do well on all the exams to do well in the class. Discussion is worth 10% so that helps balance out the exams a little. She gives review guides but lectures are sometimes rushed and disorganized.

Very accomplished and interesting as a person. The course material is difficult. The three midterms and the final are worth 90% of the grade, and she does not curve the tests. She moves pretty fast and sometimes I find myself unable to focus in her lectures, but it might just be that it is an early morning class.

She is very energetic during her lectures and explains the material well. Discussion attendance is mandatory (duh) and she is very straightforward on what's going to be on the exam. Three exams + final and there is an option to drop one exam and have the final be weighted more

Even though all physics labs are pretty much the same I just wanted to tell others to take WGJ! She is a gift to this institution and a delight to learn from. Had her for chem 102 aswell, and she's a fair and forgiving grader, expectations are crystal clear, and overall just a great person to be around.

I really loved Dr. Greene-Johnson. She is hilarious and caring. Her lectures are a bit all over the place so I would recommend looking over the notes before class. As for exams, they're hit or miss. I feel the review guides were more difficult than the exam, but I always left after the exam thinking "that was either really good or really bad".

CHEM 102 is a notoriously difficult class, but I think prof. Greene-Johnson made it do-able. Her exam reviews are long but she outlines which examples to specifically focus on. I reached out to her, worried about my grade to which she reviewed past exams with me and offered to meet every week. Her only downfall is she's a bit unorganized.

Willetta is not the best choice for chem 102. She was very disorganized and would respond to emails, then just ghost. Her exam reviews were detailed but then she'd throw something on the exam that was barely touched on. Her reviews do not live up to the hype at all. Go for someone else!

She never responded to my emails, but her reviews and lectures were helpful. I recommend going to class!!!!! If you work hard and put in effort outside of class, you'll be fine!

WGJ is awesome. She has such a light and friendly personality. Chemistry is always going to be a different class but she made it worthwhile. She always gave extra attempts on SR's and FO's to make sure that we really understood the problems and it counted towards our grade! she makes it really easy to stay afloat and there are is many opportunities

Professor Greene was a very insightful professor but during lectures you had to take notes if you wanted to succeed. The posted student notes she has often been missing many key numbers left blank for taking notes, but I feel that did more harm than good for students. Exams were very difficult, and she is a tough grader.

She is truly a genius, but I wouldn't recommend taking her for chemistry. She is a physicist and therefore that is her area of expertise. She is often disorganized and it's common for her not to finish lectures. She often sends out emails that ask you to catch up by yourself and do additional readings. She is one of a kind though! Kind heart.

Honestly the worst prof I have ever taken for chemistry in my life. I already took this class at my old college and she somehow made it EVEN MORE confusing. No one who is a beginner in chem should take her, bc she will plummet your grades faster than the Titanic. The average grade was an F for our first hw. I rather drown in Lake Michigan.

Chem 160 curriculum with fo's and co's are from [REDACTED], not WGJ. She is working with what she has which is not a lot. Topics, especially hard to grasp math FOs would be given 2 weeks to prepare for, she was given like 2 days. She is an amazing teacher and one of the most passionate professors i've had. change the system not the teacher.

If you can take Dr. Greene-Johnson, TAKE HER. CHEM 160 is just a poorly structured class and Dr. Green-Johnson tries to make the best out of it. She will guide you with any questions you have and try to help you as much as she can. She genuinely cares about helping you pass and is good at explaining the subject. Also, SI sessions are great.

She does care about students and wants them to pass, but her lectures are actually AWFUL. she goes so fast and she is so energetic that it is stressful and impossible to follow. I had to teach myself all of the concepts/use the SI.

She is a little all over the place sometimes but physics is a subject that can be easily grasped with practice so ask her questions if the lecture doesn't make sense she has no problem answering questions. Exams were a little hard because although she offers a study guide, it is harder than the exam which messes you up imo. She isn't horrible.

What a queen. Literally won a Grammy in 2004. I love her. Her lectures are mad confusing and the notes she gives for lectures are quite odd, but all you need to know is how to do the problems she gives in discussion and the review packets. Study those religiously before the exam and you'll be good to go.

She can be a little all over the place, but her personality makes her so amazing. I relied a lot on my SI, and with both of their help, my grade has improved so much. She hates the grading system, and if you make a tiny mistake, most professors would grade it wrong (no mastery), but she typically looks past it b/c she cares about her students sm.

Prof. Johnson is great, sometimes her lectures are confusing, but if you read the chapters, attend SI sessions and teach yourself you can do this. The only problem is the grading system, I don't blame her because it's not her fault. Prepare for many exams each 2 weeks. She wants you to be successful and do well, so she tries always to help you.
