Question about Chemistry.

Hi there,

I just started my prereqs this semester. So far all the subjects are pretty reasonable besides the Chemistry. In my program at my college, we are made to take a subject called Chemistry Health (an intro to bio and organic chem). It's a mix of chem. I already have allot of homework and about 10 pages to study, also have to remember the periodic table. It's not an easy class and many of the students are retaking it! I DO NOT want to retake any of these classes throughout the prereq process.

My question is, how did you manage the Chem? What did you do to help study? I just need a few ideas.

    Chemistry is one of those subject that is difficult because it involves great amounts of definitions and formulas, but nice because the information is very literally applied to tests- similar to math tests. It's different from nursing tests which will ask you to analyze situations and choose the best response. How to study depends on how you learn this kind of rote information best. For some, it's making flash cards. Others benefit from just reading the text book. In terms of the periodic table, you could try cutting out the squares of the chart and making fill-in-the-blank charts or matching the elements to the group. There's sample flash cards and questions available online to supplement your studying.

    P.S. To allot” something means to allocate, distribute, or give out. A lot” means many, or much.
