Dr. Nacsa's Exam Style

Dr. Nacsa's online exam format is 2/3 canvas multiple-choice and 1/3 writing that you'll upload as a scanned PDF of your work.
Exceptions-to-the-rule are frequently introduced to students for the first time on exams or briefly mentioned during class, but with no examples.
Dr. Nacsa's exams are similar difficulty compared to Daily Questions (DQ's) and lecture notes for CHEM 210. However, not enough exceptions, variations, and PLA's for CHEM 210. Past exam questions are used in lecture, but not enough variations.
There was a minor curriculum switch in Fall 2020 where Aromaticity and Benzene Substitution Reactions from Orgo 1 moved to Orgo 2, and Spectroscopy moved from Orgo 2 to Orgo 1.
