What to look out for in UMD CHEM 272 Lab

    • Curve Setback

    Students frequently have classmates who have taken CHEM 272 Lab before, making it their 2nd attempt (or even 3rd attempt) and therefore putting first-timers at a disadvantage for the grading curve.

      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!

      Unique to UMD

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

      Course Structure

    90% of CHEM 272 Lab classes have 3 exams and a final. ~50% assign graded homeworks, which never exceeds 25% of your overall grade (except during Covid).
