College chemistry difficulty level?

Published

One Of my pre-reqs I'll be taking in the fall is chemistry. I'm really nervous. I've never taken a chemistry class in high school. It wasn't because I was lazy or academically challenged, I had a whole lot going wrong in my life at the time that I was unable to keep up with the work load to my satisfaction and deal with the troubles in my life as well. So, I dropped it. Now, I'm nervous about passing. I'm a straight A student and I try my hardest. I'm just wondering how difficult college chemistry is? Would it be easier if i took it at a community college over the summer? Im so nervous :/ any advice would be great! Thank you!

If you really want to study ahead all summer and rock chemistry fall term, I highly suggest Chemistry | Khan Academy it basically has a year worth of excellent quality chemistry lectures. Also, if there is any lecture you don't understand well, look in the Khan academy or just google it and look on youtube. There are tons of explanations online.

Invest the time. Be creative and tenacious about finding resources that work for you (including study groups). Believe in yourself.

You'll do great.

See you on the nursing floor in a few years. ;)

I'm having a little trouble with understanding the math in chemistry. So I decided to give Khan Academy a shot. I LOVE IT! This is exactly what I needed! I learn through practice and this site gives me just that. This is great. Thank you so much for recommending it to me! :)

Don't do it in the summer classes move too fast
