Questions I was expecting to be on test!
For chapter 13 and 14 test, I expected a lot more questions from the sapling or even questions like the sapling. I studied the sapling a lot more then anything else because it basically had a question from each section in chapter 13 and 14. I know there were 5 questions, but I was expecting more then just 5 questions from the sapling. Also there were a lot of problems involving CNMR and HNMR spectrum and with that being, I was expecting there to be a problem like number 15 and 16 on the sapling, where it ask you to tell how many unique HMNR and CNMR signals exist for each compound, but instead there hardly wasn't anything about signals on the test. I also expected there to be a problem like number 17 on sapling, where it asked you to give the chemical shifts in parts per million (ppm) and it gave you the HMNR signal in Hz and the instrument in MHz. Overall, I thought the test was pretty hard and challenging and even though I was expecting a few more questions from sapling, I think I was hoping there would be to. I also think even though sapling gives you the answers and you can even hit solution to see the right answer, you still get to see how it’s done and you get a chance to look in your book for help, which you learn more by doing so.

I agree with you on the need of a question or two more like number 15 and 16 on sapling. I think most of us had the same problem studying for this test. We relied a little heavily on sapling instead of studying all the information from the text book. HNMR specifically caused most of the class, I know it did for me, the most problem because we really had not reviewed it much in class. The only experience we had using it was in lab. Overall it was just a really difficult test. Too much information to dissect for the time restraint given.
