-Labs almost every week. Reports are due the week after (1 copy per team). Easy because she makes you do a prelab for each lab so that you know exactly what to do in laboratory. -She does in-class problems and posts textbook problems that are similar to her test questions. -Her PowerPoint slides are useful if you want extra info, but its easier to just take note of everything she writes on the board as those are what she will cover on tests. -Quizzes every now and then, Tests are straightforward and the Final Exam was not too difficult but that will depend on the effort you put on your studies. -Will meet up with you online or answer your questions after class. -Fair grader, but strict with sig figs and wants clear steps and calculations when solving problems in exams.

Her grading scheme is amazing. Labs and assignments are worth 15% EACH (thats a free 30%).. Had her for chem of solutions. Her tests are extremely fair, however the final was harder then expected. She isnt forthcoming with help. If you do the text book problems (which are EXACTLY like her tests) you should be good.
