Selling Chemistry 30 BL study guide (used to get an A- in this class in Fall '13). The 15 typed page comprehensive guide includes discussion of key concepts, experimental techniques, summary of expected results and common questions/answers to typical quiz questions for each experiment. All information is easy to follow and organized by experiment name. Note: I did not attend a single lecture and relied solely on this. Price - $20 Text ********** if interested.

Spring 2025 - Deifel was super understanding and an awesome professor! I had to miss one of the labs for a graduation, and it was not a hassle. In some of my other labs classes like 20L or 30AL, that would've been trickier. The prelabs and post labs are PDFs, which is nice, so you didn't need a carbon copy notebook. Diefel explains all of the labs ahead of time during the lectures, helping us know what to do, and some background context. The workload is pretty manageable because the lab is only once a week. Overall, I would definitely take again, the labs are fun and Deifel is great!
