Chemistry

Advanced Credit exams for Chemistry are offered at four times during the academic year: the beginning of the fall semester, in the middle of the fall semester, at the beginning of the spring semester and in the middle of the spring semester.

Exam Details

This is a paper/pencil exam that utilizes a scantron answer sheet. All answers must be filled in on the answer sheet during the allotted test time. No one will be allowed to fill in answers after the exam period has ended. Paper and pencils will be provided, but students must provide their own one- or two-line TI-30X or TI-36X calculator. Please refer to the pictures provided here or on the Advanced Credit Checklist for examples. No other model of calculator will be allowed.

The exam time is two hours. In order to begin your exam on time, please arrive fifteen minutes early to check in, store personal items in a locker and receive instructions. You are not allowed to take breaks during the exam. If you finish early, you are allowed to leave.

Exams are graded by the Chemistry Department, and results are sent out via email in approximately three to five business days.

More information and study guides are available on the Chemistry Department website.
