Dr. Friedman's Exam Style

I have extensive experience tutoring Dr. Friedman's CHEM 131 and CHEM 242 classes. Tutor with me and you'll get the support and knowledge you'll need to survive his exams.
Dr. Friedman expects students to “go through the process of analyzing data, processing information, and applying logic and scientific reasoning to come to a rational conclusion.” However, expect his post-lab and exam questions to be impossible to answer without Ph.D. graduate level Orgo knowledge.
Most exams are designed for students to finish, or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.
He provides only 3 old exams and no past finals for CHEM 131 and CHEM 242 studying. He never tests on the exact same exam question twice.
