Dr. Falvey's Exam Style

Exceptions-to-the-rule are frequently introduced to students for the first time on exams or briefly mentioned during class, but with no examples.
Dr. Falvey does not have any recent CHEM 231 and CHEM 237 exams to make available to students. Contact me if you'd like access to my CHEM 231 and CHEM 237 resources from other CHEM 231 and CHEM 237 professors at UMD!
Most exams are designed for students to finish, or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.
Expect to be tested on at least 3 topics (not covered in the textbook) that are applications from real life.
