Dr. Wang's Exam Style

Dr. Wang is not a “fancy professor.” Meaning that he is a creature of habit, does not assign unnecessary homeworks, and sticks to the same mechanisms/reactions on midterms 1, 2, and 3 each semester. However, since Covid happened, his format could change in Fall 2021.
Students have the ability to get an A or jump two (2) letter grades in this class by beating the curve with 2 standard deviations above the average, IF they practice all the old exams going back 3.5 semesters.
Contact me for regular tutoring ASAP, and I can show you where Dr. Wang sources his exam questions, what he emphasizes, and what he excludes from your textbook.
Dr. Wang does have a curve so his class is more competitive. Students in this class should be protective of their resources and knowledge gained from 1-on-1 tutoring so they don’t fall below the 1 standard deviation cut-off on the curve.
