AP Chemistry Labs

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>I took AP Chemistry my Sophomore year. I did not understand anything. I am now a senior. I'm doing some self study because I want to be better grounded in Chemistry for college. I might not necessarily take the test over. I do want to do the labs over and learn the material. However, my school no longer offers AP Chemistry, so they don't have the materials for the AP Chemistry Labs. What do you all suggest?</p>

<p>Here are some ideas:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Take a course at the CC college.
(I don't think I have time for this and our CC college isn't that great)
There aren't any local University/Colleges that have a science department besides this.</p></li>
<li><p>Do virtual labs
(I heard you don't really learn much from these)</p></li>
</ol>

<p>If you have any other suggestions, feel free to add them. Thanks for the feedback! :)</p>

<p>Why don’t you just take Intro Chem when you get to college? If you didn’t understand AP Chem I’m assuming you didn’t get a 5 on the exam…</p>

<p>Oh I will take intro chem in college. But the kind of colleges I’m applying to its going to be hard to get a good grade even in an intro class. That’s why I want to be prepared.</p>

<p>No, I didn’t pass the exam. There were 20 kids to start and 10 dropped. one kid in the whole class passed with a 3, and she’s likely to go to Harvard next year. Our teacher was smart… just not a great teacher.</p>

<p>That’s the way intro classes work.</p>
