Comment:
Well he's really not a good professor. Everyone is just rating him highly because he's easy. His tests are exactly the same as old semesters, so study those. If you actually want to be a chemist or be well prepared for MCATS, take someone like smith or tenny, but if you're just looking for an A, he's your man. Really nice guy. great stories.

Dr. Doerr was great! He is really good at teaching the material so that you understand it. He is funny but tends to speak quietly, so try to get a seat up front if you want to hear him. His tests are not too bad, I made an A on each of them without using old tests to help. Even though attendance is not required, go to class if you want to do well.

This class is usually offered only at 8:00 and let me tell you it is very hard to pay attention to him that early in the morning...He is kind of monotone and speaks very softly. I had to sit on the second row to be able to hear him.

EASY class. I made perfect scores on all the tests using old tests to study. They are a must if you want an EASY A, but it's not too bad otherwise. The ACS final is brutal, however. But then again, if you actually STUDY for it, it's probably not that bad... Just do what I did, make perfect scores on his tests, and you'll only need a 21 on the final

Comment:
he is a very good professor, probably one of the best chemistry teachers I've had. Although going to class is not mandatory, try to go because he gives out handouts that help. Made a 59 on 2nd exam and when I got a old exam, i made an A on the next one. Dont get me wrong the material is hard, but he is still good at explaining it.

Absolutly the best chemistry teacher i have ever had. He is a generally nice guy and is willing to help you out as long as you put in effort. If you go to class and take notes you will be fine. Old exams help with Doer and do the homework its a huge part of you grade but super easy!

Easy class. Much more enjoyable than 101 and 102. Almost no work. Doerr is the man! I had a 100 going into the final and ended up with a 98. Great class and easy as long as you pay attention and study. Reading the book is optional. Take him and no one else.

First, the subject matter is hard. He is pretty good teacher, my only complaint was that sometimes he seemed like he fully expected people to already understand a new concept when it was presented. Other that that he was great. Btw, old tests help a lot!

Very helpful teacher in a rather difficult class. He will do everything he can to help you, so definitely go to class and read before class so you don't fall behind. Best Organic teacher at Clemson!

Doerr is the man. I had him two semesters. One of the best profs at Clemson. Study, go to class, do your homework, get an A. Some people have issues with that concept though.

I've had Doerr for O chem 223 and 224. He's a really good professor but the material is going to be hard no matter who teaches it. He is very fair and If you go talk to him he tries to help you as much as he can. He's a really nice old man who likes to tell funny stories about his work in the past. Take him!

He is an extremely nice professor. Gives extra credit on the exams. Not very organized when it comes to writing on the board - but if you read before class, it'll be so much easier. Attendance is not taken. Homework is very helpful.

he is the best organic teacher there is at clemson, & he really know his stuff. he is so hard to follow and understand though, so you have to learn it yourself, but i would recommend him anyways because he is genuinely nice and knows so much about it.

Organic is not an easy class, but as long as you keep up and go to class you will be fine. He is the easiet professor for Oragnic. Exams get harder throughout the year but as long as you study you will be fine. His homework really does help you out.
