Exam 4 Study Guide
The exam will cover Chapters 10, 11 and 13 and all material covered in lecture. Specific material from your lab
experiments will not be tested on this exam, but the concepts presented during your lab sessions tie in closely with the
lecture material. At least a few questions will be taken directly from your online HW and recitation activities.
A practice exam is attached. As stated in the syllabus, you should use practice exams as practices of real exams. In
other words, study as you would for a real exam, sit down with nothing but a pencil and a calculator, and give yourself
75 minutes to complete it. This should be a good indicator of how you will do on the real thing and give you clues on
what to brush up on. These questions are also different from doing problems in the book in that they are not
“compartmentalized” in such a way that you know exactly what section of the book to look at to solve them. The
practice exam includes a Periodic Table and Equation sheet, which are identical to what will be included on the actual
exam.
In addition to the attached practice exam, your lecture notes, lecture quizzes, handouts, recitation activities, and
assigned homework questions are valuable study aids. As always, copies of all quizzes and handouts are available in
the ‘Content/Handouts’ section of Blackboard.
Need help? Take advantage of TA and instructor office hours. Chad (our former LRC Manager) has some helpful
review sessions posted online at http://www.chadsreview.org. The site is free, but does require registration. Once you're
logged in, the review sessions are posted by chapter in the "Videos" section. Review sessions are also being planned by
Dr. Timo Park (one of our lead recitation instructors) and the University Academic Success Program (UASP) at the
following times:
Timo’s Exam 4 Review: Monday (12/1) from 4:30-6:30 PM in PS H-135
Lin’s Exam 4 Review: Wednesday (12/3) from 7:00-8:00 PM in PS A-203
UASP Exam 4 Review: Tuesday (12/2) from 7:00-8:00 PM in PS H-153
Your SI leader may also be planning additional review sessions. They will send email announcements as appropriate.
* DISCLAIMER: Dr. Briggs does not prepare or run these sessions (he has already prepared a practice exam and study
guide for you). Any material presented is the responsibility of the person running the session. If you have any
questions about this material, please ask them. Supplemental materials from other sessions will not necessarily be
posted on Blackboard.
Exam 4 is Thursday, December 4th (the last day of lecture) in the normal lecture room (PS H-150) at the normal
lecture time. The exam will begin promptly at the start of class and you will have the entire period to complete it.
Please show up on time and do not sit next to a lab or recitation partner or someone you’re used to working with in
class. If you do, a proctor may ask you to move.
You will need to bring a #2 pencil, a scientific calculator, and your student ID. NO OTHER DEVICES OR
MATERIALS WILL BE PERMITTED--THIS INCLUDES CELL PHONES, TABLETS, HEADPHONES,
TEXTBOOKS, AND HANDOUTS (INCLUDING ANY FREE EXAM QUESTIONS). If your calculator has any
notes programmed into it, you will need to delete them. If you need a device to keep track of time, bring a watch since
cell phones will not be allowed. If you do not know what your Affiliate ID is, ask your TA or instructor well in advance
of the exam. During the exam, please help the proctors avoid all suspicion by not leaving your Scantron and test
booklet within site of your neighbors.
Early exams are only possible for those with a very good, documented reason for missing the regular time. If you feel
that you fall in this category, you must make arrangements with Dr. Briggs at least 5 days in advance and be prepared to
present appropriate documentation (such as an official university letter) to support your absence at the normal time.
Keep in mind that those taking an early exam are putting themselves at a disadvantage, as they will not benefit from the
latest lecture material or review sessions. Late exams are not possible under any circumstances.
