Dr. Koppel's Exam Style

Dr. Koppel is the only professor teaching CHEM 232 for Spring 2023, so everyone is on the same boat (sailing turbulent waters). Contact me if you'd like help reaching your desired grade for this lab class!
Dr. Koppel's CHEM 232 post-lab questions are incredibly difficult and require Ph.D. graduate-level thinking.
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.
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.
