Amy Mullin CHEM480 Expecting an A Anonymous 01/29/2025	CHEM480 is a tough class that crams a lot of material into a short time. I took it with Dr. Mullin, and she’s definitely an interesting professor. She teaches on the whiteboard and doesn’t record lectures. Instead of posting her own notes, she uploads student-submitted notes, which count for participation points. Her homework and exams are tough but fair, and she really does want you to learn. That said, she’s very blunt and won’t hesitate to call you out if she thinks your question is dumb—but don’t take it personally, that’s just her humor. Her office hours are also extremely helpful and she will sit down and walk you through different problems if you go to them. There’s a strong curve at the end, but she won’t tell you what it is. Grades feel a bit based on “vibes,” meaning if she thinks you’ve demonstrated enough knowledge for a certain grade, that’s what you’ll get. She mostly gives A’s and B’s. Overall, while Dr. Mullin wouldn't necessarily be my first choice for taking this class again, I don't think she's a bad professor and would not hesitate to take another one of her classes if I needed to in the future.
