Sciences at Dartmouth

<p>Can anyone tell me how strong the sciences are at Dartmouth? Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>As far as I have heard, the chemistry dept. Is really very strong.</p>

<p>I've heard that it's very strong as well.</p>

<p>I picked dartmouth partially on the grounds that I like the schools approach to geology in that it is a comprehensive "earth science" major. At the same time, I wanted something focused on the liberal arts. </p>

<p>Dartmouth is great because it has the science (and engineering) but you still can become well-rounded with your other classes</p>

<p>Thanks...I'm interesting in ways to use science in a career that isn't necessarily the pre-med track, while still getting a strong liberal arts education...any and all comments are very useful!</p>

<p>this is the first line on the chem 5 website</p>

<p>"Contrary to popular belief, the laboratory portion of general chemistry is not designed to torture students. "</p>

<p>:-)</p>
