Dr. Wang's Exam Style

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’s exams are extremely straightforward and have 20% less reactions than most CHEM 237, CHEM 241 and CHEM 247 professors. For example, he cuts out Benzene Birch Reduction, Cis vs. Trans Alkene Wittig Differences and the Retro-Aldol Mechanism.
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.
Dr. Wang provides one practice exam for his students to study, but no past actual exams. Tutor with me for access to 3.5 semester's worth of Dr. Wang’s exams and explanations dating back to 2017 when he started teaching CHEM 237, CHEM 241 and CHEM 247 to prepare you for the midterms and final.
