Can formula-based materials be brought for the basic chemistry exam?
Thread Content
I’m currently preparing for the basic exam for registered chemical engineers. I would like to ask experienced candidates whether it’s allowed to bring formula-related materials into the exam; there are just too many formulas, and it’s difficult to remember them all. . . . Thank you~~
No. However, I will send you a relevant booklet, which will be collected after the exam.
You can’t bring anything for the basic exam; only items are allowed for the specialized exam.
The materials provided for the exam are useless even if you look at them.#89

In my opinion, it’s beneficial to know how to make use of the materials provided. If you’re careful enough, you can find quite a few scores in the materials provided; it’s not entirely pointless to mention them. The formulas are incomplete, and that’s normal, especially in subjects like physics and chemistry. Some of the important formulas in Chemical Engineering Principles are presented here. If you’re not sure, focus on the big things and ignore the minor details ； Grasp the familiar, let go of the unfamiliar. If lucky, one can get by even without recovery*. Unfortunately, if you’re not lucky, focus hard on advanced mathematics and principles of chemical engineering – that way you can still pass.
Everyone has taken it before; I’ve learned from that
A relatively thick book will be provided, containing formulas, but it seems that few of those formulas will be useful. Not having that book won’t affect your ability to solve problems; what’s important is that you know how to handle the basic questions. After all, they’re all multiple-choice questions, so it depends on your skills.
I’m thinking about taking the exam this year as well, but I haven’t prepared anything yet. It seems there are many exams: practical procedures, trade competitions, trade tests, and computer-related tests – all of which require time
