Rasputin will mention ill prepared Alchemists and then give a math oriented exam. This exam consists of two addition-subtraction questions, three multiplication-division questions, two questions pertaining to discount-overcharge, and three questions about the DEF and weight of certain items and armors. The player will need to have at least 80% of the answers correct in order to pass. However, if the player is Job 50, they can skip this part of the exam.
Math questions:
13+25+37+48 = 123
12+23+34+45 = 114
1,000-58-214-416 = 312
1,000-36-227-348 = 389
14*17*3 = 714
12*24*3 = 864
10,530/3/5/2 = 351
9765/3/5/7 = 93
(35*19) - (1,792/7) = 409
(47*28) - (1376/4) = 972
(2,368/8) + (24*17) = 704
(2,646/7) + (13*28) = 742
Discount questions:
Red Potion (12), Fly Wing (5) Butterfly Wing (1) = 909z
Red Potion (6), Green Potion (7) Fly Wing (8) = 798z
Green Potion (15), Magnifier (6), Trap (4) = 934z

Darwin will explain the basics for creating potions. The player will need the following items for this part: 1 Red Herb, 1 Yellow Herb, 1 White Herb, 3 Empty Bottles, and 3 Medicine Bowls which can be bought upstairs from the male Alchemist NPC.
He will then ask questions regarding potion creation after he explains the process.
You can skip this part and the rest of the job change quests like I do by giving an 'Illusion Flower' to Darwin. If you do, Darwin will instantly send you the job change NPC.
* Mixture and Counteragent Quest
Move to the next room to meet with Van Hellmont. The player will need the following for this part of the quest.

With these items head to Alberta Inn (alberta 102,222) and go upstairs to the second room on the right (alberta_in 133,55). Talk to the NPC near the corner (Louitz) and he will tell the player to talk to Aure Dupon in Geffen. Head towards Geffen and talk to the NPC (181,114) near the eastern Kafra, who will tell the player to talk to Morgenstein, the crazy scientist.

This experiment fails most of the time and the player will receive a variety of items from iron ores to gold depending on luck.
