Dr. Friedman's Exam Style

Most exams are designed for students to finish, or answer accurately, but not BOTH at the same time.
Dr. Friedman copies all of his HNMR graphs from a 3rd party website and uses them for exams and post labs.
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.
Dr. Friedman does not "tolerate any nonsense" and will give severe consequences to students who collaborate on post labs.
