Dr. Mignerey's Exam Style

Dr. Mignerey's exams are extremely consistent but long and you can expect 30-40 questions per homework.
Exceptions-to-the-rule are frequently introduced to students for the first time on exams or briefly mentioned during class, but with no examples.
Many students find that Dr. Mignerey goes on tangents during lecture, often leaving them confused about what topics are tested and what's not tested.
In Fall 2020, she posted 1 old exam for CHEM 135 and CHEM 271. If you tutor with me I will provide you the past 10 semesters worth of pre-online and online exams to study.
