Academics at Old Dominion University

F

Education/Academics in the Chemistry Department

For some reason ODU's chemistry department sucks. They have tutors and TAs that really don't help much. One professor is teaching a class of 200 people or more, and there is no place to sit in class. Some students sit on the floor or on tables because they are overcrowded. Many students end up dropping the course in the middle of the course, so their GPA won't drop but end up paying for the stupid course that did not teach them anything. There is no one-on-one teaching in those type of courses. The chemistry professor seemed to not care about helping its students, so tell my why mostly everybody I talk to is doing bad in this course? There's only one person who had an 80 or 100 but everybody else is screwed. That right there tells you the teaching technique in the chemistry department is not so great, unlike the biology department where they actually do try to help you.

I like the local atmosphere of NYIT-Old westbury. It is really nice and quiet. You can take the LIE to Manhattan and enjoy more of the nightlife or you can drive to queens, manhattan and any of the 5 boroughs of NYC.
