Structure: |
This course
will cover the material found in chapters 1-13 of “Organic Chemistry”, 11th
ed., by T.W. Graham Solomons, et. al. (“the text”). You will encounter four mandatory 15-question, 15-point
exams (1 point per question), each covering 3 - 4 chapters of text material
at various points throughout the course of the semester. A 20-bonus-point Mechanism Exam will
be given near the end of the semester to help you recover lost points from
the other 4 exams. All exams
must be taken in class. No
makeup exams will be given without written documentation of unavoidable (ie.
emergency) circumstances. Makeup
exams should be taken ASAP, but will not be given after July 27. The course will conclude with a
40-question, 40-point mandatory cumulative final exam. All exams except the Mechanism Exam
are written in 5-part multiple-choice format, and you will be required to
bring large scantron forms (8.5 x 11” size, available in Bookstore) to
each exam, as these will not be provided. At the end of the session scores will be totalled, (Course
Total: 100 points) and grading done
using the following scale: |

Problems: |
Please bring
questions or problems to me in person.
Do NOT email me. It takes far too long to answer
questions by back-and-forth emails and I won’t even attempt to do so. Phone me with simple questions or see
me in person. |
