What to look out for in UMD CHEM 231

    • Course Structure

    90% of CHEM 231 classes have 3 exams and a final. ~50% assign graded homeworks, which never exceeds 25% of your overall grade (except during Covid).

      Past Exam Keys

    Tutor with me to gain access to my extensive CHEM 231 exam keys. Most professors do not share enough old exams and students lack relevant practice problems.

      Spectroscopy Disadvantage

    Most CHEM 231 professors teach 3 spectroscopy methods (IR, NMR, Mass Spec) during the last 2 weeks of class - giving students minimal time for the unit to sink in. This places you at a disadvantage for Orgo 2 lab (CHEM 242) the following semester. Tutor with me 1-on-1 to help bridge this gap from Orgo 1 to Orgo 2.

      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.
