What to look out for in UMD CHEM 241
-
Past Exam Keys
Tutor with me to gain access to my extensive CHEM 241 exam keys. Most professors do not share enough old exams and students lack relevant practice problems.
-
Curve Setback
Students frequently have classmates who have taken CHEM 241 before, making it their 2nd attempt (or even 3rd attempt) and therefore putting first-timers at a disadvantage for the grading curve.
-
Secret Curve Cutoffs
Only 1 professor doesn't grade CHEM 241 on a curve - Dr. Davis - who has a set cutoff system. The professors who grade on a curve refuse to share their cutoff with students.

You should take Orgo 2 immediately after CHEM 241 Orgo 1. Taking a break from the Orgo “mindset” is very disruptive to your chemistry education and you’ll experience a painful learning curve getting back into the electron pushing mindset.
Study Tips for CHEM 241 Exams
Study the RIGHT Material
There are no common exams or finals at UMD. This means you should prioritize studying with classmates who are taking the SAME professor.
Get Help Early
Work with a tutor, find a study group, or talk to your professor if you get stuck.
Don't Cram
Plan ahead at least 2 weeks. Study by chapter so you absorb in digestible chunks.
Why Tutor With Me for CHEM 241?
Accelerated Catch Up - If you're behind, I'll help you catch up 10x faster than studying on your own using private resources.
Jog Your Memory - I frequently tutor CHEM 241 students who claim they “forgot” all their Orgo 1, and their common attribute is taking a semester break after Orgo 1. Tutor with me 1-on-1 for shortcuts to quickly regain your Orgo 1 knowledge (it’s easier than you think!).
Relentless Class Pace - You start learning 2 to 20 (yikes!) new reactions from day 1 and it does not end until finals. Students frequently complain that they have to memorize 200+ reactions by finals. As a tutor, I will provide you with custom flowcharts that will help you quickly understand all 200+ reactions.
Learn The Source of Exam Questions - ~75% of CHEM 241 UMD professors create their own exam questions. ~25% of professors pull from outside sources (such as textbooks) that students are not aware of. As part of 1-on-1 tutoring, I’ll prioritize your access to resources, so you know which questions to study and most likely tested in class.
