Nobile is one of the most easy-going professors I have had! Her lectures are to the point and she teaches exactly what will appear on her exams. If you attend all lectures and apply the knowledge in discussion every week, it is impossible not to get at least a B in the class. She is great one-on-one as well. Highly recommend!

CHEM1001 was entirely online, including labs and discussions. Dr. Nobile's lectures thoroughly explained material with plenty of practice problems. She was upfront about expectations, and had very good exam prep that directly related to the exams. She was very accessible via email and office hours. Overall, I really enjoyed having her.

Awful class with an even worse professor. Nobile is so lazy when it comes to online class, she uses Aleks as a crutch to pretend like she's teaching something. All homework and exams are on Aleks with no partial credit. If you voice concern she will throw it back in your face and make you feel like an idiot for even asking a question. Do not take.

STAY AWAY. Her content was done fully through aleks. All home work and texts are through aleks and she offers absolutely no grace with grading through aleks. She is no help in or out of class and is often gone the day before test, making asking questions impossible. She is getting paid for assigning aleks, and will refuse to do any more work.

Coming in with AP high school chemistry, this class was a breeze. Nobile kept me engaged with her lectures. Weekly quizzes are easy (lowest is dropped). Midterm was directly from lecture material and D2L reviews. Labs were OK. Final exam was nearly identical to the study guide. I wish she taught organic chemistry at Marquette. Messi>Ronaldo.

Dr. Nobile is such a caring professor this was my second semester with her, while the content was harder it was easier to understand with her help. It will not be an easy class but if you go to office hours and study hard for the ACS the grade you want is 100% achievable. No matter where you go gen chem 2 is hard but with Nobile it isn't as bad

Our study group is rating profs tonight. I've only had one semester with Nobile and wished I had both semesters with her. She's as great as everyone said last semester. Chemistry is not easy and I haven't seen it since my sophomore year but she makes it better. Titrations are my least fav. Big class but it doesn't really feel that big.

I love Dr. Nobile. She makes chemistry easy and fun, which I didn't know was possible. Her syllabus is a bible and she follows it. I love her organization. Her husband is Ronaldo and the picture in the organic chemistry powerpoint is the best part. Take Nobile if you can.

Abramovich, Nobile, Katz is the combo for biology, chemistry, bisc. I've had a full year of Dr. Nobile and I've learned to see chemistry everywhere. Plus as a bonus she is funny and her extra credit is worth it. I wish she taught organic chemistry in the fall.

Attendance doesn't really count since it is 1% of the grade. I don't like that she won't make exceptions to the course rules that she has in the syllabus. I do respect that she has 400 students and treats everyone equally by the syllabus. She will give extra credit and curve. She's good at teaching chemistry but don't ask her for an exception.

She is the best Chem professor here. She wants you to succeed and will help you if you reach out. Her class is hard but if you put in the work you can do well. Lecture's are recorded online to look back at, 20% weekly open note quizzes, 2 exams worth 40% of grade, 20% lab, and some smaller % here and there. If you can, take her.

Best way to learn chemistry. I enjoyed lecture and learned so much. Her midterm was pretty difficult because there was a lot of questions in a short time but there are so many other easy ways that that grade really does not matter. She is by far the best chemistry teacher for this course. TAKE HER!!

LOVE HER! TAKE HER! You have to study and do your work. That is obvious. Her reviews are just like the quizzes (open note) and in class exams (so long). She curves the class: quizzes-exams-labs-attendance and the extra credits are fun: basketball-singing-TikTok. Wait listed, got in for gen chem2 and am incredibly grateful. First A in chemistry!!

There's quizzes with one being dropped and a bonus but she will haunt with this bonus the whole semester calling this a curve. She made the whole class do a survey for 0.5 EC points and made us feel like it was so much. DONT TAKE HER. Exams are so hard writes half of them wrong. Take Gardiner for 1001 and SAUER for 1002. She gives 4 versioned exams

I took AP chemistry in high school and loved Nobile's way of teaching college chem. The material was the same as high school but Nobile teaches chemistry wayyyyyyyyy better. Easy A if you had high school chemistry. Pre-med so my AP class didn't transfer. Learned a lot about the chemistry of Ronaldo.

Honors chem 1002H was fun and easy because of Dr. Nobile. Did the honors project with my lab partner. That was an easy grade for one of the labs. Nobile teaches chemistry, does a review, and then quizzes and tests on the chemistry she went over in the reviews. Don't skip the review days!!!!!! You can miss class and watch her videos tho.

Midterm was insane. Final was okay. Prof Nobile responds quickly to emails and is easy to talk to. I deserved a C but pulled off a B- from the curve. Good enough for engineering.

My freshman year was very similar to high school chem except Dr. Nobile was much better at explaining chemistry. The class moves fast. She posts the schedule. When she finished a lecture early on the schedule we reviewed that day. Classes went fast with her. I enjoyed the year with Dr. Nobile.

4 versions of the exams from lectures, reviews, homework, IN CLASS REVIEWS were the best. Dr. Nobile was amazing. I wish I had her for CHEM1001. Organized, understandable, lots of extra credit throughout the course and she adds more at the end.

She made me love chemistry. Study her reviews, attend her lecture review days, take her practice test, pay attention to her in-class examples. The quizzes are similar to her examples in class and in her reviews. It's a hard class. If you like Marvel, Fast & Furious, Ronaldo, DC, chemistry in our every day life like lotions, she explains it all.

Warm and welcoming. So smart, great lectures, take her. Her quizzes and exams are just like her reviews in class. Do the homework and the labs. If you had a good chemistry teacher in high school you don't need to attend every class but attend the review days.

I did not enjoy this class. I actually regressed because of this class. Dr.Nobile is nice, but she explained concepts I already knew well, so unnecessarily complicated, that I genuinely forgot basic concepts. I disliked her TA too, she was nice but unhelpful and was a very strict grader for lab reports. You either got full credit, or none.

Although attendance was only 1% of the entire grade, show up to lecture even if you already know the material. Having come from AP Chem the year before, a lot of the content was just review but Dr. Nobile explains things in a really clear and concise way and it's really helpful especially if you haven't taken upper level chemistry courses before.
