Review Exam

Monday, August 3 at 2 pm.

     This is an optional, comprehensive exam. The score on this exam will replace the lowest of your three exam grades. (The lab grade will not be replaced.) If the grade on the Review Exam is lower than the lowest exam score, it will not be counted. Although this exam is strictly optional, it will be good practice for the final exam.

     If you cannot take the exam at the scheduled time, it will be possible to take it at some other time that day.

Final Exam

Thursday, August 6 from 8:00 am to 10:00 am.

     Half of the Final Exam will be taken in part, but not totally, from the previous exams, suggested problem sets, and quizzes. The other half will be a standardized, multiple-choice American Chemical Society (ACS) exam.

     Students who must miss the scheduled exam time must notify the instructor by noon of the day of the exam, otherwise no make-up provisions will be made.

Suggested Problems

These problems will not be picked up or graded, but they will be similar to the problems on the quizzes and exams, and I would recommend working some of them.  Most of the problems are paired, with the odd-numbered problems having an answer in the back of the book, and the even-numbered problems being of a similar type, but without an answer given.

The complete suggested problem list may be found here.
