Dr. Mignerey's Exam Style

Dr. Mignerey's exams are extremely consistent but long and you can expect 30-40 questions per homework.
Dr. Mignerey's exam questions are short and straightforward...for Exams 1 and 2. Exam 3 has long, challenging problems that cause students to struggle and lower their exam grade average.
Most exams are designed for students to finish, or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.
Learning is self-directed as students tend not to watch the online lectures posted by Dr. Mignerey. I'll clearly explain chem concepts, and teach you strategies to answer exam questions fast and accurately.
