Dr. Friedman's Exam Style

For +5 semesters in a row, Friedman recycled difficult alcohol/ether mechanism questions from outside sources not shared with students. This creates an ‘element of surprise’ during tests and maintains lower exam averages. Tutor 1-on-1 with me, and we'll practice these resources together.
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.
Dr. Friedman’s Spectroscopy questions require your brain to channel deep thinking. He refers to them as “fun puzzles”, but students prefer to call them a “confusing maze”. Tutor 1-on-1 with me, and I’ll help train your thinking to convert the maze back into a puzzle.
I have extensive experience tutoring Dr. Friedman's CHEM 241 and CHEM 242 classes. Tutor with me and you'll get the support and knowledge you'll need to survive his exams.
