What to look out for in UMD CHEM 231
-
Secret Curve Cutoffs
Only 1 professor doesn't grade CHEM 231 on a curve - Dr. Davis - who has a set cutoff system. The professors who grade on a curve refuse to share their cutoff with students.
-
High Drop Rate
CHEM 231 is a weed-out class and the department knows it. A drop rate of 20% is common no matter who is teaching.
-
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!
