Dr. Griffith's Exam Style

Most exams are designed for students to finish or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.
As a tutor, I've worked with dozens of struggling students who jumped 2 letter grades on the next exam after a 'push' in the right direction, catered resources, and regular 1-on-1 tutoring sessions.
Dr. Griffith's exams are difficult, but not impossible and require more conceptual understanding and memorization than other professors. Her Isotope Ratio and Diprotic Acid Base problems tend to be most challenging for students.
Contact me for regular tutoring ASAP, and I can show you where Dr. Griffith sources her exam questions, what she emphasizes, and what she excludes from your textbook.
