What to look out for in UMD CHEM 271

    • Past Exam Keys

    Tutor with me to gain access to my extensive CHEM 271 exam keys. Most professors do not share enough old exams and students lack relevant practice problems.

      Unique to UMD

    CHEM 271 Lecture & 272 Lab are unique classes to UMD only. They are taken after Orgo 2 and designed so that students cannot opt out of 272 via transfer credit.

      Make-Up Exam Policy

    75% of professors have their makeup exams a few days before the final. Students are frequently surprised they are comprehensive exams, which feels like a 2nd final!

      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.
