Dr. Dixon's Exam Style

In the 15 years I've been tutoring her class, Dr. Dixon has created all of her own questions and has never ONCE repeated a problem verbatim on any of her graded homeworks or exams.
Dr. Dixon heavily emphasizes on 3-D visualization for static molecules, reactions, and mechanisms.
Dr. Dixon's exams are very difficult and require more conceptual understanding and memorization than other professors.
A lot of students organize their schedules around avoiding Dr. Dixon. This is because she teaches 6 chemistry classes up to Biochemistry 463, and it's likely every student will end up in her class at least once. I can help you navigate around her course times or help you pass her class on the 1st try.
