What to look out for in UMD CHEM 131

    • Past Exam Keys

    Tutor with me to gain access to my extensive CHEM 131 exam keys. Most professors do not share enough old exams and students lack relevant practice problems.

      Make-Up Exam Policy

    75% of professors have their makeup exams a few days before the final. Students are frequently surprised they are comprehensive exams, which feels like a 2nd final!

      Absence Policy

    After an emergency, including hospitalization, ~80% of UMD chem professors expect you to take their exam same time as everyone else when you return to campus.

      Exam 3 Overlap

    Exam 3 tests on the same chapters as Exam 1 and 2 in CHEM 271. You could potentially ask upperclassmen for help, or tutor 1-on-1 with me to gain clarity for this class.

    • Study Tips for CHEM 131 Exams

    Ask Questions

    Be bold and ask direct questions when you're stuck - there's value in wrong answers so you can recognize and avoid them.

    Get Help Early

    Work with a tutor, find a study group, or talk to your professor if you get stuck.

    Study the RIGHT Material

    There are no common exams or finals at UMD. This means you should prioritize studying with classmates who are taking the SAME professor.

    Why Tutor With Me for CHEM 131?

    • Tech Savvy Tutor - I know the ins and outs of online meeting software, like Zoom, Webex and Join.me. I'll easily fix your tech issues as well to ensure our session runs smoothly.

      Exam Tips and Tricks - Exam 2 is baby organic chemistry and Exam 3 is the “grade killer” - Exam 3 will tank an A grade to C, and a C grade to failing. Tutor with me 1-on-1 to avoid this common pitfall!

      Excel on What's "Actually" Tested - ~75% of UMD professors recycle old exam questions. Some professors repeat entire exams verbatim, some repeat only 1 or 2 questions per test. Yet, having seen them, students still don’t know how to begin due to confusing wording. Tutor 1-on-1 with me and I’ll help you translate Chemistry into English so you can answer quickly and correctly.

      Learn to Sound Smart with Your Professor - Learn how to shine among your peers by visiting office hours often with "smart" questions ready in hand - I'll teach you how and what questions to ask and get the most out of 1-on-1 face time during professor office hours.
