What to look out for in UMD CHEM 271
-
Not Enough Resources
Students frequently make the long trek to office hours just to take pictures of old exams. Sometimes they encounter canceled office hours or a 20+ minute wait just to enter. Tutor with me 1-on-1 to avoid this struggle, as I'll provide you my whole exam set!
-
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.
-
Rampant Cheating
There is a high number of incidents of students getting caught cheating on 272 lab reports, because the department uses turnItIn.com to catch 271 / 272 students.
-
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!
Study Tips for CHEM 271 Exams
Study the RIGHT Material

Practice Old Exams
Execute on old exams. Even if you get the wrong answer, you'll learn from your mistakes faster.
Ask Questions
Be bold and ask direct questions when you're stuck - there's value in wrong answers so you can recognize and avoid them.

Excel on What's "Actually" Tested - ~75% of UMD professors recycle old exam questions. Some professors repeat entire exams verbatim, some repeat only 1 or 2 questions per test.
