Orgo and/or Diff Eq for Summer Session?

Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin

<p>Term 1 (June 2- July 8):
CH 318M, Organic Chemistry
CH 118K, Organic Chemistry Laboratory
Term 2 (July 11 - Aug 9):
CH 318N, Organic Chemistry
CH 118L, Organic Chemistry Laboratory</p>

<p>A total of 8 credit hours. This is Orgo for ChemE majors. I'm thinking of taking these over the two 5-week summer terms and getting Orgo over with. The professor will be Siegel.</p>

<p>Professor</a> Siegel, D | Professor Ratings & Reviews at UT | The University of Texas at Austin | MyEdu</p>

<p>I want to make A's (4.0) and have a legitimately comprehensive understanding of Organic Chemistry by the time I'm done. Is this realistic, or will this just be a terrible, discouraging shock for the beginnings of my college career as a UT Chemical Engineer? I considered myself a fairly competent AP Chem student, with a consistent low A average and a 5 on the AP. </p>

<p>The alternative for me is taking:
M 427K, Advanced Calculus for Applications I AKA Differential Equations</p>

<p>The class will last both of the 5-week sessions. The professor will be Goddard.</p>

<p>Professor</a> Goddard, B | Professor Ratings & Reviews at UT | The University of Texas at Austin | MyEdu</p>

<p>Again, I'd like to make A's in the class. Is this realistic? I'm a fairly competent BC student right now who hopes to make a 4/5 on the AP.</p>

<p>just take them during the regular semester</p>

<p>I have done this with classes in the past and taken just one subject at a time during the summer… I have always done much better in my summer classes and had a stronger understanding of them when I was done. I am going to do that again this summer to finish up my spanish credits and would totally recommend doing the chem courses that way if you just want them out of the way but want a good understanding of them just be ready to do the work because it takes a bit of focus to rush though a class in 5.5 weeks.</p>
