Dr. Davis's Exam Style

90% of exam questions are repeated in Dr. Davis’s exams but you must study back 5+ semesters.
Dr. Davis is NEVER condescending and is arguably the most approachable professor in the CHEM department at UMD.
Contact me for regular tutoring ASAP, and I can show you where Dr. Davis sources his exam questions, what he emphasizes, and what he excludes from your textbook.
Dr. Davis’s exam questions are long, but conceptually straightforward and molecules are simple and non-complicated. However, his exam wording can make a reaction or 3-D conformer "look" more confusing.

    • Study Tips for CHEM 241 Exams

    Don’t Cram

    Plan ahead at least 2 weeks. Study by chapter so you absorb in digestible chunks.

    Avoid Distractions

    Silence your phone, videos, and tell family to stop bugging you to create a focused environment.

    Ask Questions

    Be bold and ask direct questions when you're stuck - there's value in wrong answers so you can recognize and avoid them.

    Why Tutor with Me for Dr. Davis's CHEM 241?

    • Timing - If you can’t make it to Dr. Davis’s 8AM class, you’ll be perpetually behind in CHEM 241, no matter how nice or how good Dr. Davis is at teaching. He will know if you don't attend class because he recognizes the faces that come to lecture regularly in the hallway, and new faces that only show up during exams. However, as a tutor I will help you get ahead with Orgo 2 material so you're motivated to wake up early and attend class!

      Exam Tips and Tricks - Get tips and secret resources used by Dr. Davis. Know UMD's peculiarities and learn specific strategies to study for exams.

      Study the Right Resources - From my experience, in order to succeed in Dr. Davis’s CHEM 241 class you need to study old exams outside of what’s provided by [[her/him/them]] along with what he gives you. Tutor 1-on-1 with me to access and understand, in great depth, old exams and resources.

      Homework Guidance - A tutor needs a 1 hour session to walk a student through one of Dr. Davis’s homeworks and help them arrive at the correct answer on their own. Students need 4 hours on their own without a tutors’ guidance to achieve the same correct answer.
