What to look out for in UMD CHEM 272 Lab

    • Homework Points

    UMD professors rarely base exam questions off of the online homework system - they are just for extra points. Ignoring them may tank your grade by 1 letter.

      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!

      Famously Difficult

    CHEM 272 Lab is famous for the wrong reasons - 12 hour lab reports, harsh grading, non-conventional chem curriculum, and the department will not allow any transfer credits for CHEM 272 Lab.

      Extra Exams No One Asked For

    CHEM 272 Lab has a midterm and a final where 50% are different topics than 271. Students frequently complain that they feel like it's a different chem class to study for.

    • Study Tips for CHEM 272 Lab Exams

    Don't Cram

    Study the RIGHT Material

    There are no common exams or finals at UMD. This means you should prioritize studying with classmates who are taking the SAME professor.
