Another Course Question =)

<p>I have a question about the intro. chem course (Chem 1410 and 1411). I'll sign up for the lecture and lab, but the lab also seems to have a 2 credit lecture component. The lab itself is 0 credits, and the lecture has a 0 credit discussion section. I'm confused about what the class requires. Are there 2 different lectures? How many credits total? I want to have my schedule semi figured out by orientation so I can get into the classes I want.
Also, can we get credit for the lab component of AP Biology by submitting a notebook of completed labs? (I took AP Bio but not AP Chem).</p>

<p>Gen. Chem lecture (1410) is separate from lab; however, the professor will usually have lecture structured so that it correlates with lab (1411).</p>

<p>Yes, the lab does have its own lecture component. And you should go. During lab lecture, the professor will go over how to perform the lab and he might give you hints for the pre-lab and post-lab write-up.</p>

<p>LOL the joys of general chemistry.</p>

<p>^^ HAHA! Yep. Thought I was going to be an Envi. Sci major; boy how things have changed.</p>

<p>Also, it’s almost impossible to get credit for labs. I know students who have gone to TJHSST and kept their lab notebook for that reason, but to no avail. You can try to get Bio Lab credit, but I don’t know anybody who’s actually gotten it and I know a couple who haven’t.</p>

<p>^ Are you saying it’s almost impossible to get credit for all labs, or just Bio? </p>

<p>My son received credit for his lab notebook for Chem last year. He’s not a Chem junkie, it’s actually his least favorite class and was glad to put it behind him. His AP Chem class required two separate blocks, one for lecture and another for lab, so there was no skimping where labs were concerned.</p>

<p>So if you’re speaking just about Bio I have no experience, however if you are saying all labs I have to disagree with you.</p>

<p>I was speaking for Bio since I have experience with that. I wasn’t sure about Chem.</p>

<p>Also, did he get credit or did he get an exemption? That’s interesting though considering that on the Chemistry website they specifically say that they do not assign credit. I’m just curious at this point. I’m not doubting your claim.</p>

<p>My mistake. Thanks for catching that as I would hate for others to have gotten wrong information. It is indeed an exemption not credit.</p>
