Reviews of professor Nicholas Dodge

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Brilliant and inspiring. But, his class is really really hard. Tests are so difficult now that class is online.

Dodge is one of the best profs at Vassar. He cares deeply for his students and respects them greatly. Lectures are organized and clear, but you really need to work for your grade in this class. However, Dodge puts just as much work into his course as he expects you to. Fantastic guy and professor, and knows so much about chem related to medicine.

wow I would give up my kidney for this guy lol!! he is SO smart, kind, and caring. I've gone to his office hrs and shed tears and he's always willing to listen. if you have to take orgo, he is 100% the person to take from. Tests are reasonable, and the entire class is graded on tests only so study!

Prof. Dodge is a great professor in that you'll learn a lot, but HIS TESTS ARE ON CRACK. I hired a tutor for this class (the tutor is a professor at UMBC), and he literally said, in his words, "nothing makes me feel more inadequate than your problem sets". For some reason, Dodge takes it upon himself to make his tests as difficult as possible.

That final was a wow for sure. Hardest test Ive ever taken- albeit online. If online, be wary. Still one of the best professors Ive had.

Knows a lot but there's no reason Vassar College organic chemistry should be harder than the Ivies.

Easily my favorite prof Ive had at Vassar. Never a dull moment in his class. His lectures highlight the key fundamentals of orgo and his tests are mostly straight from the lectures. He holds weekly review sessions to cover the topics and office hours to go over things or just to chat. Definitely take his class and get to know him, a true gem.

I would definitely recommend to take Organic Chemistry with Prof. Dodge. If you talk with him in his office hours, you will find that he is very easy to talk to and will offer any help you need to help you ace orgo. You will also be shocked by his enthusiasm and professionalism. He does not only have the expertise but highly capable to teach. Do it

Dodge is the best professor I have had here at Vassar. He treats everyone with respect and genuinely wants the students to understand the material. I hated chemistry before and never thought I would major in it, but Dodge inspired me to pursue the chemistry major and even do research. If you are able to take his class, then do so.
