What to look out for in UMD 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.

      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.

      Harder Chem Concepts

    Students unwillingly learn analytical and instrumentation chem in CHEM 272 Lab, which is not part of traditional chem 2 topics. They are harder 400 level chem concepts thrust upon them in a 200 level course.

      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).
