Grading on a Curve

Exam Difficulty
Topics tend to be scattered and out of order throughout CHEM 101 exams. Questions are rarely repeated verbatim and change from semester to semester.

Exam Details
Exams are 50% multiple choice and 50% short answers. You'll usually see 1 or 2 tricky calculation questions that contain a "concept within a concept" and the exams are designed so that the majority of the class can finish quickly, but not accurately.
