Study Tactics

Postby Jose Robles 1D » Sun Nov 03, 2019 10:32 pm

I'm getting a bit worried for the midterm, what do you guys suggest be studied or emphasized most in a study section? I just want to utilize my time most efficiently.

I would focus on lewis structures and resonance because it plays a huge role in drawing a stable structure!

I think doing all the problems he gives instead of a few probably gives a more complete picture of how the test will be, also reading over and understanding the bullet pointed concepts Lavelle outlined on his learning outcome sheets should help.

making sure you know how to use one equation to fill in missing pieces to another is really important as well. Converting units properly and using the necessary formulas for each problem is really important and should be practiced as well!

Definitely look over and practice the questions from Lyndon's review session last Friday that he also posted on Chem Community. The packet was super helpful!
