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.
Dr. Davis is NEVER condescending and is arguably the most approachable professor in the CHEM department at UMD.
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.
While most CHEM 241 and BCHM 462 professors just talk all the way through lecture and continually introduce new reactions, Dr. Davis will take 5 minute breaks so students can “mentally breathe.”

    Why Tutor with Me for Dr. Davis's CHEM 241 and BCHM 462?

    • Study the Right Resources - From my experience, in order to succeed in Dr. Davis’s CHEM 241 and BCHM 462 class you need to study old exams outside of what’s provided by [[her/him/them]] along with what he gives you. Tutor 1-on-1 with me to access and understand, in great depth, old exams and resources.

      Accelerated Catch Up - If you're behind, I'll help you catch up 10x faster than studying on your own using private resources.

      Homework Guidance - A tutor needs a 1 hour session to walk a student through one of Dr. Davis’s homeworks and help them arrive at the correct answer on their own. Students need 4 hours on their own without a tutors’ guidance to achieve the same correct answer.

      Access to Joy's Extensive Resources - Tutoring with me will grant you access to at LEAST 7 semester's worth of exams and keys, including finals, for Dr. Davis’s CHEM 241 and BCHM 462.
