This wasn't my favorite subject but Dr. Orgill managed to make it (almost) painless. She's a great teacher, very helpful in every way, and the fastest grader I have ever seen. Nothing but positives for this professor.

She is awesome! Take her class if given the opportunity. She is crystal clear in everything she says and exams/homework/quizzes are not ridiculously difficult. Show up to class, participate, ask questions if needed and you'll pass.

I was nervous to take this class because I had never taken chem before. Dr. O showed interesting ways to learn the difficult material and always encouraged questions/in-class interactions. If you don't get something, go to her office hours! She's interested in helping you learn and always has treats :)

Coming out from high school AP Chem class, I would say that Dr. Orgill is THE BEST! She explains it in a way that can be easily understood by every students. She gives out extra credit for the pre-class problems. And random group quizzes. Even though I'm not required to take the exams, I still go to her lecture for more understanding. Awesome prof!

GREAT teacher. She provides so much help. She sets up discussion boards on her website and is willing to help you. Do Practice Problems, it will make her exams seem easy. I highly recommend her for Chem 122. Plus, she is always in a happy mood. There is never a dull moment in her class.

The best professor I have ever had. Excellent PowerPoints, notes and teaching style. Tests are difficult but she tells you what you need to know. Lots of opportunity for grade improvement in the form of group and out-of-class quizzes. I cannot recommend this professor enough!

Professor Orgill makes chemistry easy to learn. If you go to the lectures, you will do great on the exams! If you don't... you might not do so good. But go to class! She makes it fun, so you want to be there. If you can choose your professor for 122, take her class!

Great professor! BEST chem teacher at UNLV. She is helpful and gives out candy if you visit her during office hours. The lectures are interactive and clear to the point. Chem 122 is easier than 121, but you will still have to work hard to get the A. No curve, and is very strict about the grade cut offs.

This Teacher is amazing! She goes into full detail about every topic and makes sure the student understands. She explains the powerpoints and the practice problems she posts are very helpful when preparing for the tests. If you study her tests will be easy. Overall I felt that I understood the subject better because she taught the class

She really cares about her students! She's organized, optimistic, and very fair. It's chemistry, so of course the material is going to be somewhat challenging no matter what professor you take. But she was EXTREMELY helpful to a lot of students.

Bottom line, best teacher I've ever had in college. Didnt even buy the book for 103 or 121 and got an A because her notes were so clear.

Definitely the best professor I have ever had the privelage to lean from. She has a very strong desire for you to pass by making enldless resources available to you. It really is unfortunate she does not teach o chem, or every other class for that matter. She puts other professors to shame. Just pay attention, take notes, and enjoy your A.

I took Chem 103 and 121 with Professor Orgill because she is an amazing teacher. I am so glad that I got to have her in 103. She makes chemistry seem extremely easy and she pretty much gives you everything you need to pass her tests. Tons of practice problems and her study guides are the lecture notes we go through in class. I highly recommend her.

She is a very helpful professor. She really wants you to learn and she is always there for you if you need any help. She has 4 exams, weekly online quizes, group quizes. IF you do the recommended practice problems in the book (on her syllabus) and the posted problems on webcampus you will Ace the class. She is very fair and I wish she taught al

Dr. Orgill is an awesome professor. She made chemistry seem so easy, and our class averages on tests were pretty high. She's really into helping her students understand the material, and bribes her class to come to office hours with candy. Seriously the sweetest professor I've had so far.

She is an AWESOME TEACHER! She really understands the material and is able to explain it on an understandable level! Attendance is pretty mandatory with the group quizes. If you attend class, and take notes, you wont even need to open your book! Thats how fantastic she is!!! =]
