| course rating : | 4 - Awesome |
| course comments : | Material in the course very interesting. Expect the class to be rather hard, fast paced, and to include a lot of material. |
| class : | Spring 2002 section 001 |
| grade received : | N/A |
| class rating : | 3 - Good |
| class comments : | The class is rather hard. A lot of work is required b/c it is a four hour course (PS). Personally I think a bit to much was required in terms of in class assignments- but they did help in studying for the test. Webassign was actually difficult for me b/c Sremaniak does not mark the answers you get wrong- so where as in any other class i usually get 100%- in CH331 i usually got anywhere from 60%-80% which brought down my grade (and it is really annoying!!). In my opinion the tests are also to |
| instructor : | Sremaniak |
| instructor rating : | 3 - Good |
| instructor comments : | Very friendly and homorous. Added a bit of excitement to the classroom (about as much as you can to Pchem). Grades assignments very promply. Avaliable for office hours or by appointment for questions. The only thing I didn't like was so stuff about the grading policy which I mentioned above. |

| course : | CH 331 |
| course rating : | 3 - Good |
| course comments : | Good, IF you like thermodynamics. 2/3 of the class is thermo, with a bit of kinetics and quantum. |
| class : | Spring 2003 section 002 |
| grade received : | A |
| class rating : | 2 - Average |
| class comments : | Good teacher and good course, but there is surprisingly little I remember that stands out. |
| instructor : | Sremaniak |
| instructor rating : | 3 - Good |
| instructor comments : | All lectures are done in powerpoint with little time to write notes, so buy the course pack. Also, grading may be a bit sketchy (my 98 wasn't good enough for an A+). |

| course : | CH 331 |
| course rating : | 0 - Horrible |
| course comments : | The worst class I have ever taken. Aside from one or two lectures, which were interesting, this class taught me how to plug numbers into an equasion. Though from my grade it would appear as though I can't even do that right. |
| class : | Spring 2004 section 001 |
| grade received : | C+ |
| class rating : | 0 - Horrible |
| class comments : | Dr. Sremaniak was an OK teacher which was not enough to salvage the course. This was the hardest class I have taken in some ways I wish Dr. S would have explained stuff better. She'd give us homework on stuff that she never told us how to do and was not in the book. Quite frankly she expected to much intependant thought an problem solving without giving us a strong enough base. |

| course rating : | 3 - Good |
| course comments : | This class covered a lot of material quickly. However, it is generally interesting and can be enjoying if you like a challenge. |

| grade received : | A- |
| class rating : | 3 - Good |
| class comments : | This is a harder class, though very interesting. The class is taught via power point which is annoying because many things are not covered well or are rushed. There are practically no examples, which makes the webassigns hard. |

| instructor rating : | 3 - Good |
| instructor comments : | She is a very nice and smart instructor, but her style of teaching (power point) is annoying. She does not give many examples. |
