The final exam will be given in the lecture hall, 10-11:50am on Monday, Dec. 8.
chapters 1-6:    12 questions (2 per chapter); 134 points (2/3 of the final exam)

NOTE:  In the Fall 2007 quarter, 12 students earned F's (<60%) on the first exam.  Of these 12 students, only one student passed the class (with a grade of "C").  If YOU failed the first exam this quarter, there is a very high probability that you will fail CHM101; please come see me!
