Reviews of professor Maduka Ogba

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I absolutely love Dr Ogba, despite my grade I do know that he was one of the few teachers that has believed in me from the start, even though the material was quite tough, Dr Ogba made me love the material, that I quite frankly miss doing O CHEM. ABSOLUTELY BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!!!

Such a vibrant and nice man! However his class is so fast paced! He also teaches with a flip classroom method. This was difficult for me personally because I found this style to be less efficient for my learning. cares a great deal for his students. Overall, you can do well in this class just expect to put in 60% of your life into studying it.

Dr. Ogba is one of my favorite professors I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. That being said, ochem is one of the hardest undergraduate classes you can take, ever. BUT, he gives you the resources you need to perform well and is always available and willing to help you understand, and being around him just makes me so happy to learn ochem!

Def recommend Dr. Ogba! He makes this class as easy and digestible as it can be. Don't breeze through pre-lecture videos and go to Office Hours. My grade started improving when I did these two things. Tests are every two weeks, but the pacing is good since there's less content and you can drop one. He's also hilarious and understanding.

Dr. Ogba is the best professor I have had at Chapman. Organic chemistry is a hard course no matter where you take it. I took both semesters of ochem with Dr. Ogba and I wish I was back in his classroom. It's a hard course and took a ton of time. But he gives you every resource to succeed.

Ogba is so vibrant and passionate about the subject. He is sincerely one of the coolest people I have ever met and I want to be friends with him outside of class. Ochem is a hard course, and he is a very thorough teacher (i always understand whats going on) BUT he is also an insane tester. You will have to work EXTREMELY hard for your grade

He uses a flipped classroom model, meaning you have to watch lectures outside of class. This can some times be a bit overwhelming as we learn a great deal of content in a short amount of time. However, he is accessible and willing to answer questions during office hours. Class is very test heavy so make sure to be constantly reviewing material!

Truly a gem! He's a wonderful lecturer and is so passionate about chemistry. His class worksheets are challenging and he throws you into the deep end, conceptually. He's available during office hours and by email. OChem is such a difficult class that you'll have to spend a ton of time daily to understand it. Do NOT procrastinate!!
