Pvt diagnostic lab technology

I have always been interested in chemistry and the concepts that make it into a science, but there were many things I didn’t understand. The instructor of this class is very knowledgeable and has a way she presents the information is already making me go in a great way I actually understand that.

M.GANESH (B.SC CHEMISTRY), 2015-2018

JRF in SRM

This is a great program. The primary feature is the number of worked and practice problems. Instead of memorizing, one learns by doing. Short of being in the lab, this is the next best thing. I have never been good at math nor chemistry but the professor explains the various processes in such a simplistic way that so far I passed the quizzes with a perfect score and I have a pretty good grasp of everything she’s saying. Granted, I had to watch some explanations more than once but that’s just my pace of learning. I had a very pleasing experience in learning and I am very grateful to the faculties and the Management.
