chem

<p>[general bio major--pre-med, revelle]</p>

<p>if i received a 5 on the ap chem test, what is suggested as a chemistry course fall quarter? i'm deciding between o.chem, chem a-c, chem bh-ch, keeping in mind that i still need a high gpa for med schools...</p>

<p>i believe this question has been addressed multiple times in the last two weeks alone - search the archives, as previous posters aren't wont to copy-and-paste their blurbs.</p>

<p>(i suggest 140 series, you can retake gchem at your convenience jr/sr year)</p>

<p>any advice on choosing one prof. over the other out of profs. robert ternansky, edith c. glazer, and james whitesell?</p>

<p>haha phoebe came back to teach? well, she's brand spanking new, so best to let other students try her out before you entrust her with teaching you 140A.</p>

<p>whitesell is super easy but not spectacular as a teacher (his wife is the chancellor, makes you wonder a few things).</p>

<p>ternansky is a VERY sarcastic and bitter professor, but knows his stuff cold. really good lecturer. exams difficult but out of all the classes, if you can manage an A from ternansky, you'll learn the most ochem out of all three profs. (and if you're a girl, you can flirt your way to near anything)</p>

<p>right now a bunch of the ochem classes are full with like about 5-15 ppl on the waitlists. is it likely this will clear up or is it better to just wait until winter to sign up?</p>

<p>just sign up; you don't want to be off-track for ochem (fewer friends to study with, fewer profs/times to choose from when registering).</p>

<p>^ This is probably a really stupid question. I was looking at my classplanner earlier, and several of the classes are either full or have people waitlisted already. How is this possible when registration begins on the 28th?</p>

<p>continuing students have already registered</p>

<p>is requesting to do research at the scripps institute similar to at ucsd itself (just approaching the prof.)?</p>

<p>how common is it for science majors to commute to the scripps institute for work?</p>

<p>astrina! i/m taking glazer...what do you expect her to be like as a prof? ...</p>

<p>i've never watched her teach before, can't say :)</p>
