soo how'd everyone do

My grade is still not up for some weird reason (not even under past semester grades)
but some other people I know have gotten their grades back

C+ from a CHE major with like a 3.5+ gpa
C from BLS major
D from BLS major
F from Animal Science major
F from BLS major


his grade distribution has got to be total shit this semester...ive never known this many people to do so horribly, esp from what we all heard about bumgardner

his tests and esp the final seemed to be a little more difficult this semester...i dunno, just venting and worrying about my grade

did u get a cheat sheet? I worked in the tutorial center this sem and uh he was waaaay harder this semester than when I had him. we only had lie 4 webassigns the whole sem.

When I took it with Dr. B (about 3 years ago), we only had two WA in CH 223. I had a D- going into the final, and he let us bring in two cheat sheets front and back. I went to Kinko's and shrunk down the answer key to every exam that semester and the previous year's final, and pasted that onto two sheets of paper. I got a 96 on the final, and with his policy, I got an A in the course. I learned absolutely nothing about organic chemistry, and was never more proud of it

B+ BCH Major

i expected better but im okay with that

Is Sandberg not teaching CH223 anymore or something?

5/6/2006 3:51:18 PM

^ is sandberg better at teaching 223 than she is 221? Ive head so many good things about her, so i took her 221 class this semester and the class average was 73 and the median 80. isn't that kinda low for her??

damn, I am really glad I am taking novak now, especially since I had Dr. B for 221, didn't learn shit and got an A-

does any one still have his cell phone number that he gave out during class? if so could you pm it to me. i sent him an email last week and whent to his office a few times to ask him a few questions about the final, but he never respende to the email and wasnt in his office

I know what you mean. I think I went to class a whole 10 days that semester (if that) but I got everything I could onto that cheatsheet and VOILA! An A!!!!

take Sandberg, you'll actually learn stuff.

5/7/2006 10:36:00 AM

Why don't some of you guys stop biting on Bumgardner's balls, and actually study? You lazy a$$es.

5/7/2006 11:21:30 AM

who said we didn't study? The whole reason most people did bad was because of the final which was like 40% of our grade. He gave us a pool of problems that "73% of the final would come from". So we spent time going over those problems and old tests and the final was nothing like he said it would be.

5/7/2006 11:27:47 AM

I would just like to talk to him because i got a D+, but i never brought my Test 1 and Test 2 in for a re grade had i done that i would have goten a few points back on those tests. with those few points i think it would have bosted my 69 to a 70.

5/7/2006 11:29:19 AM

Pack,

That was in a sarcastic tone. Now the issue that I have is that these days, the majority of people never study right, total reliance is on the professor. If you wish to succeed in undergraduate and want to pursue a professional or graduate degree, then you have to change your study habits. That is all what it boils down to.

Peace.

^^^damn, you're taking CH223? I remmember you're in my CH221 lab 2 years ago.

5/7/2006 4:52:25 PM

Off topic, I'd have to say 223 was the most enjoyable chemistry class I have taken so far. It was interesting material with a teacher who made it easy to learn (Sandberg).

GG Organic Chemistry II!

5/7/2006 6:02:43 PM

ch 223 isnt that hard...i think its a pretty easy class

5/8/2006 8:43:41 AM

all those people, who think CH223 is hard, are gonna be in for a rude awakening in upper-level classes.

5/8/2006 8:50:52 AM

^Yeah, I can't wait to take CH 437 (Physical Chemistry) in Spring '07. Good times ahead.

5/8/2006 11:07:53 AM

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone has been in touch with Bumgardner. I had soem questions about my grades. I called both lines and shot him an Email no answer. I wanted to know if any of yall had responses from him since the exam.

5/9/2006 11:43:02 PM

yea wait till you take bch 451, 452, 453, ch 331, ch 315...then you'll be like ch 223 is like learning how to add

[Edited on May 10, 2006 at 8:43 AM. Reason : ;]

5/10/2006 8:42:35 AM

i preferred bch 451 over ch221/221

i learn better in applications and concepts, not stick structures and chemical reactions. then again, i have a lot more interest in physiology than i do actual chemistry.

uhh, ch315 has got to be possibly the easiest chemistry class ever. And organic has NOTHING to do with most other chemistry, you can be great at chemistry and suck at organic.
