What to look out for in UMD CHEM 271
-
Absence Policy
After an emergency, including hospitalization, ~80% of UMD chem professors expect you to take their exam same time as everyone else when you return to campus.
-
Homework Points
UMD professors rarely base exam questions off of the online homework system - they are just for extra points. Ignoring them may tank your grade by 1 letter.
-
Not Enough Material Learned
CHEM 271 is a 2 credit class (instead of usual 3) that learns fewer chapters than Chem 2 at other schools. Students may not learn enough Chem 2 material for MCAT or DAT studying.
-
Competitive Office Hours
Students tend to wait ~30 minutes before the professor opens their door, just to be the 1st to ask their own questions.
