Pros: Great professor. Much easier than other organic professors and much better at explaining subjects.
Cons: Her quizzes are a bit tricky, but manageable. They are worth a lot, so don't skimp on them.
Dr. Shirtcliff is a great professor. She realizes that she is teaching a majority of pre-med people so she does not teach the class as we are all Chem majors. She makes even the most difficult concepts easy to understand, but do not go to her with questions without looking for yourself. In order for you to succeed in her class you must study on your own. Only way to learn the material is by practice. She often uses quiz questions and examples from the text on the tests.

Pros: Explains things well
Cons: Mumbles in lecture, difficult to hear if you aren't on the front row.
Difficult class. She doesn't curve. Doesn't post that many supplemental materials. No practice tests. Random quizzes.
