<p>I dunno but with my class it wasnt about just memorization (which im good at) but you really had to apply the concepts, and i just wasnt that interested in it. Im more into math so i think i will like chemistry.</p>
<p>I can't wait to take chemistry. Lots of experiments and stuff (or so I've heard). Sounds really fun!</p>
<p>yeahh...but dont forget the stuff where u memorize the periodic table and do equations or whatever lol.</p>
<p>We only did two experiments (well, one mini-experiment) on a length of semester in Honors Chem. It was REALLY harder than Honors Biology.</p>
<p>For you it may have been, but i dont think that will be the case for me. Chemistry is more my forte.</p>
<p>Well, the difficulty of my situation was that teacher had offered opportunity of adding "Honors" to class name for those who would demonstrate proficiency in several topics. I, as usually procrastinated, but thanks God, accomplished everything. It was hard but VERY interesting, stuff like REDOX.. mhhmmm....</p>
<p>In biology I merely exceeded on a final and got B (I was sick all the semester). But Chem was more interesting, a couple times interesting than Bio.</p>
<p>I hated freshmen year...</p>

<p>I'll also hopefully be starting EMT training in September, which is around 2-3 classes a week, 3 hours a class. I applied for the Columbia SHP (not that I'll get it), and if by some miracle I do, that'll be Saturday mornings.
