Any suggestion before starting chemistry at college?
Review high school notes before hand and always get a tutor when you need help. Don't slack off and procrastinate, highly impacts grade.
Great advice tnx u my friend 😆
Be prepared and don't stress out too much! (not saying it's much of an option)
Review dimensional analysis and conversions scales those are a huge part of chem. Review your algebra I and II, that would definitely help. I find that if you know how to manipulate equations well you will do fine. for instance, i.e. like if i give you 100 grams how many kilograms would that be? Logarithms are also important when acids and bases are brought up.
Get a planner, you're going to be doing a lot of labs and the difference between spending 1 hour or 3 hours in a lab usually comes down to how prepared you are going in. A little preparation can save you hours of stress, trust me lol.
Study the material EVERYDAY. Falling behind in one unit can screw you over for the rest of the semester if you don't know the material. I had to take my first semester of chem over again because I didn't take it seriously.
