Testing out of Chemistry 301

<p>Hey, I'm attending UT in the fall as a BME major and was planning on taking the test in order to place out of chemistry 301 and into 302. (Principles of Chemistry I/II, respectively)
I was wondering if anyone on here had any experience or advice as to how I should approach studying for this test. I think I'm just going to pick up an AP Chemistry book and teach myself over the summer.
Any response is greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>I am also planning on CLEPPING Chem 301 and 302 and I would rather pick up the Clep Book (but not a big difference). I flunked AP chemistry exam in high school lol because I lost hope and interest starting the second semester. Anyways, I am a finance major transferring in a sophomore in Fall 2009 and just wana get Rid of that crap…so its outa my way.</p>

<p>As far as I know, UT does not accept CLEP tests for chemistry.<br>

<p>See UT Austin Tests for Credit section of this table:

<p>They want you to take their own UT Austin tests for 301 and 302. Sleepr, although it says you can use any book to study for these two tests, the web site tells you exactly which chapters of which text these books cover. I’d buy a copy of that exact text from half.com</p>

<p>my bad. he is right about the book but since most of the exams give you option to either Clep it, AP it, or take the International Baccalaureate Exam, I think this test “might” be similar to a Clep exam. But as he said, look over the book first, then to review the material, its always good to read over the clep book (which is usually less material than the AP book). I did take AP chemistry in high school, just didn’t get through the AP exam, so if you have any questions, you can find me on here. Also, for me, bomb calorimeter and thermochemical stuff was quiet difficult.</p>
