      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

    Avoid Distractions

    Silence your phone, videos and tell family to stop bugging you to create a focused environment.

    Why Tutor With Aromatic Prep for CHEM 271?

    • 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. Yet, having seen them, students still don’t know how to begin due to confusing wording. Tutor 1-on-1 with me and I’ll help you translate Chemistry into English so you can answer quickly and correctly.

      Learn The Source of Exam Questions - ~75% of CHEM 271 UMD professors create their own exam questions. ~25% of professors pull from outside sources (such as textbooks) that students are not aware of. As part of 1-on-1 tutoring, I’ll prioritize your access to resources, so you know which questions to study and most likely tested in class.

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