What to look out for in UMD CHEM 131

Competitive Office Hours
Students tend to wait ~30 minutes before the professor opens their door, just to be the 1st to ask their own questions.
-
Exam Practice
~50% of UMD chemistry professors share a portion of their old exams and keys for students to practice (but not their complete exam set). Only 1 professor shares their complete exam set. Tutor with me 1-on-1 to find out who that is!

Course Similarities
The only difference between CHEM 131 and CHEM 135 are Exam 3 topics.
