She is perhaps one of the best professors you can get when just beginning organic chemistry! I am very excited to continue to take her class in the summer for 30B! I hope to get her labs as well :)

Dr. Reilly is a wonderful professor. Her lectures were to-the-point and clear, and she was always helpful during office hours.Would 100% recommend her for 30BL or any organic chemistry class.

Professor Reilly is probably the nicest and most caring professor at UCLA. She genuinely cares about her students and she is always willing to help. Her class is very tough and challenging, and you must be prepared to grind. I took her for 30A and 30B during COVID. For 30B, I did all the suggested textbook problems, read the textbook, and did all the material she provided, and I was able to ace midterm 1 and the final (something I normally don't do). If you really apply yourself, the class is manageable. I hope I can take 30C with her, and I recommend taking chem with her.

Professor Reilly is one of the best professors that I have had. She emphasizes learning the material rather than simply trying to get a good grade which is really useful for a first time orgo student. There are very few grades in the class (and only 1 midterm) which means that it is important to do well on those assignments. She was extremely accommodating throughout the quarter and has recorded answer keys to homework and discussion worksheets where she walks through the thought process we should have while solving problems. She genuinely cares about her students' success and has very organized lectures. Highly recommend taking her if you have the chance.
