Prior IB Chem knowledge carried my through this class, hard. Exams are like 80% of your grade, but you're allowed a cheatsheet on them. Homeworks are insanely difficult but the exams are much easier. Overall, not hard to get an A, as long as you lock in for the exams. Make sure to study hard and put a lot of homework problems/in-class question examples on your cheat sheet, tho.

It's analogous to CHM2045, but includes a lot of additional Chemistry content that isn't really necessary for future Chem classes. Pretty interesting but a lot of the material for the last exam was, I felt, unnecessary.

Dr. Perez clearly knows a lot about Chemistry, but unfortunately does not do well with explaining lectures about Chemistry. Past a certain point in the semester, I completely stopped paying attention to lecture and just focused on doing homework.

Just focus on exams and you're fine.
