Textbook: "Organic Chemistry", John McMurry, 6th Edition,
Brooks/Cole, 2004.
Please read the material in the textbook before coming to class. Suggested
problems will be discussed during the recitation periods. Three exams will be
given during the semester, on the dates indicated. In addition, there will be a
cumulative Final Exam, tentatively scheduled for December 17. Sample exams will
be handed out and discussed prior to the exams. It is very important that you
not fall behind in this course! Studying with your classmates, either in study
groups or informally, is very helpful. I will be glad to assist you in setting
up study groups. Your grade for the course will be determined as follows:
|
Exams (15% each): |
45% |
|
Final Exam : |
30% |
|
Laboratory : |
25% |
