Prof: Lutz Maibaum / Fall 2025
Dec 31, 2025
The course was interesting by covering more gen chem content in a shorter timeframe. It was a much larger amount of work but relatively forgiving with its curve. Lab and exams were very important portions of the grade.
Covered all chemistry basics such as bonding, quantum mechanics, stoichiometry, chemical equilibrium, acids and bases, and gases.
Lutz was a very friendly professor and loved answering questions. Maybe a little too much. He often took up large amounts of lecture time to answer questions that were not very useful to the whole cohort. Office hours help was available and very helpful.
Do not underestimate the amount of ALEKs practice or the difficult of the exams, especially midterm 1.
