Dr. Koppel's Exam Style

For the past two years, Dr. Koppel has created unique CHEM 232 post-lab questions that are never repeated to prevent people from copying off of old labs. The department is paranoid about students cheating on post labs (for good reason) and as a result, they have their own Chegg account, monitor other Chegg accounts, and frequently compare students' work.
in CHEM 135, 20% of Dr. Koppel's curriculum are organic chemistry reactions and naming. This extra material catches students by surprise since it involves different applied thinking. A tutor like myself, who's mastered both gen chem and Orgo, is best suited to help you navigate the peculiarities of 135.
In the 7 years I've been tutoring her CHEM 231 classes, Dr. Koppel has created all of her own questions. she occasionally repeat problems verbatim on future exams, and ~33% of question types are repeated using slightly different molecules and numbers.
The CHEM 232 midterm and final are designed to be impossible to finish so that students have zero time to collaborate with each other during online exams. You'll have to work quickly and accurately.
