Orgo 2 is difficult because it's a lot more memorization of reactions than Orgo 1 and there's a lot of synthesis problems, but Prof. Bunt made it as enjoyable and easy as it could be. There are four exams but he was pretty flexible --- after we didn't do well on the second exam he let us drop it and replace it with the final. Lab with Fischer was even easier than Orgo 1 and the synthesis project was pretty cool.

Professor Bunt is very enthusiastic in his teaching. He is also extremely accommodating and understanding. We had quizzes every week and exams were difficult, but Bunt does his best to make sure his students succeed. He also gives a lot of partial credit when he grades.

I took Organic Chemistry I and II with Professor Bunt, and I (shockingly) loved both classes. I struggled at the beginning to adjust to the pace of the material, but talking to Professor Bunt and keeping up with the practice problems helped me do well in the course. He’s incredibly supportive, and I would recommend this class to anyone curious about STEM/pre-med!
