About
Topic Reviews provide students the opportunity to engage in an in-depth review of specific topics related to their course. Each session emphasizes the relevant knowledge and skills needed to master the topic. Through guided discussion and collaboration, students will refine their conceptual understanding of foundational topics, address gaps in their knowledge, and come away with tools to further their mastery on their own.
For Fall 2024, topic reviews will be offered for the following courses:
- Chemistry 1A
- Chemistry 3A
- Chemistry 3B
- Molecular & Cell Biology 102

Topic Reviews for selected courses are held on a weekly basis and offerings vary by semester. To view upcoming sessions dates and times, please visit the live Topic Review schedule.
