Evaluation Comments for Bunt

  1. I spent entire weekends in BiHall studying and doing practice problems. The practice problems were really helpful and Professor Bunt was always available to help, although the tutor was not as helpful. Rick is a great teacher and is really enthusiastic in lectures which makes a possibly really dull topic interesting. The tests were difficult but fair and the quizzes kept you on track. The labs were long and terrible and Professor Oster proved to be the down-side of taking Organic Chemistry; being a new teacher he did not really have a good grasp on things and wasted a lot of time. He was harsh on grading and was not very helpful most of the time.
  2. Professor Bunt is gem. Take this course just to work with him.
  3. An amazing professor in a course that will partially ruin your life. Rick Bunt is possibly the best lecturer I've ever encountered; infectiously enthusiastic and great at clearly explaining concepts. No matter what anyone else says, the grades you get ARE fair and representative of how much work you've put in. Lab is fun (Oster is the man) and will bring up your grades. That being said, if you are not prepared to put in many, many hours a week, you will do very badly in orgo. But if you do all the problems he assigns you'll be ok. Hope your weekends aren't too busy.
  4. Professor Bunt is an excellent teacher. He manages to engage you in organic chemistry, which is not always so easy. As long as you stay up on the reading and treat each weekly quiz like a mini-test, the material builds very cumulatively and is quite reasonable. The workload is difficult, but not nearly as overbearing as many perceive.
  5. Rick Bunt is the man. His lectures are great and he's an astoundingly nice person/professor. Always helpful and available in office hours. I'm really sad Orgo 2 is not with him. his tests are intellectually stimulating and at times, even a little fun. this class is not for the faint of heart.in general, Orgo is a ballbuster.
