Final Exam
-
The final exam will be a standardized American
Chemical Society (ACS) exam that will cover the entire year
of chemistry, Chem 161, 162 & 163. The exam has a
120 minute time
limit and consists of 70 multiple-choice questions
that will be scored and curved based on your performance relative to the
score of other students around the country.
There will be an opportunity to take a practice
ACS exam (see the Chem 163
syllabus for the dates) so that you can get a feel for
what the exam is like. The practice exam will not affect your grade.
Your final exam percentage will replace your lowest exam score if this
improves your grade.
