Duke Grading

<p>Orgo as a freshman: there is a special section of the first semester for freshman. The curve is set to a B+. You'll have to take the second semester with the rest of the orgo kids in a class where the curve is set to a B-.</p>

<p>Orgo in the summer: the curves are nicer (I'm not sure what they are), but it's more intense, since you're doing both semesters of orgo in a single summer. Though, you could always take the first semester of orgo during spring semester and then the second semester of during the summer, since the chem department is no longer operating on an alternate schedule (where they offer certain classes only certain semesters).</p>
