Dr. Davis's Exam Style

Dr. Davis’s exam questions are long, but conceptually straightforward and molecules are simple and non-complicated. However, his exam wording can make a reaction or 3-D conformer "look" more confusing.
Besides teaching CHEM247 (Orgo 2 for Majors) in Fall 2020, this is Dr. Davis’s first time teaching CHEM 241 and BCHM 462 since 2012.
Dr. Davis’s exams are highly conceptual - which means that exam prompts are wordy, confusing, and written in paragraph form. It takes time to figure out and work through each question - which is stressful during timed exams.
Dr. Davis does not give a curve but does have hard cutoffs. If you have an 80% in the class, you have an A, and 70% is a B.
