Arizona State University course study guides: CHM 101, PSY 101

Courses students often find difficult at Arizona State University

A "weeder course" is an introductory class that students often find difficult and that may have high withdrawal or failure rates. At Arizona State University, the courses below have predictable trouble spots, which is why students repeatedly search for "Arizona State University course help."

CHM 101 (Introductory Chemistry, 11 chapters, ~3 hr 15 min on Lorea) is commonly difficult because of specific skills: Stoichiometry and limiting reagent (Ch 4) is the single biggest failure point; then VSEPR molecular geometry (Ch 7); unit conversion and significant figures trip students in week 1; gas law problem setup (Ch 9).

PSY 101 (Introduction to Psychology, 16 chapters, ~3 hr on Lorea) is commonly difficult because of specific skills: Confusing correlation with causation in research methods (Ch 2); classical vs operant conditioning discrimination (Ch 6); the memory-stage model (Ch 8); matching theorists to theories across Ch 9-11; DSM categories in Ch 15.

How the Arizona State University term is structured

Arizona State University teaches these codes on a 16-week semester. CHM 101 and PSY 101 add up to 27 verified chapters. Finish time on Lorea scales with that count and with the subject (chemistry problem sets run longer per chapter than a psychology survey). The campus calendar is 16 weeks; the online study guides are built to be finished in hours, not weeks.

At Arizona State University, CHM 101, PSY 101 are what the registrar prints. The study guides below follow those codes, not a generic subject page.

Prerequisite chains that matter

PSY 101 is usually the gen-ed or major-gate psychology course. It is not a prereq for the chemistry codes on this hub, but it is the course people fail by mixing theorists with theories. CHM 101 is the first quantitative chemistry gate. The sequel (often numbered one digit higher) is campus-specific - confirm it on the Arizona State University catalogue rather than assuming a shared next code.
