If I have 4+ years of experience in the lab (let's say ChemE), is organic lab really necessary? I will have also had 3 semesters of Bioengineering lab coursework too.

Does anyone have taken Biology and chemistry online for the pre dental ? I need a school name if you did and did you get into dental school. Thanks!

Hello SDN this is my very first post. I couldn't find an answer anywhere on on the site, but I remember looking up pre-reqs for for medical schools on the school websites and reading that one school did have an exception of some sort for this. I'm currently taking Gen Chem 2 and it includes...

I have a 3.6* gpa and I'm taking the FIRST CHEM CLASS I just got a 76 on the first test and I have a 90 in the lab. Is this a disaster?

I just got my first test back from my summer chemistry course and it was a 76. there are two other test and a final but I might get the same grade or potentially worse. I have an A in the lab so far and my GPA is a 3.6 - 3.7 with my community college grades. (graduated with an A.A. in General...

Hello! Does anyone know where I can find orgoman tutoring online for chemistry? I have reached out to them multiple times and I they will not answer my questions regarding this matter. Thank you!

Hi all, I am confused with the question when the question said "NOT" and they minus -3.4 eV from total Energy. Can someone help me with this question as to why they minus -3.4 eV ? I got 20.5 eV and go with B. AND what does that NOT in the question even mean lol. I am confused with the wording also.

I was wondering if anyone who used Bootcamp could tell me how close the general chemistry is to the real DAT. I'm struggling pretty badly with it at the moment. Test 3 weeks away.

Hey! I was wondering if someone could explain to me why we can assume Al (s) is more susceptible to oxidation compared to Zn (s). Thanks!

I'm current a HS junior. I loved pre-AP chem, and I'm taking AP chem my senior year. I'm in AP physics now.

Hey guys, I'm a 3rd year at my university, and I am freaking out because my plans turned sideways. I received a C- in Chem2A (general chemistry first quarter), and a lot of PT schools want at least C. I can't retake it at my university because a C- is "passing" for them. I can't retake it at...

Hey, so I am a 26 year old non-trad hispanic male. I have a 3.65 cGPA and a 3.9 sGPA. My MCAT is a 512. I am a father of three children, have about 100 hours of shadowing, and countless hours of tutoring for my school and privately. I also have about 50-100 volunteering hours, some pertaining to...

I'm pretty much just using the study guide to study for it (my exam happens to be on Friday) and I'm not the strongest in gen chem. Any tips on taking it (whether it be topics to focus on, formulas to know, or time management) would be greatly appreciated! Edit: is it more heavy on chem II?

I will be taking the ACS final exam for General Chemistry I and II. I was wondering what you all thought of it? It's a large chunk of my grade and I'm really scared about it. I was wondering what I could do to best prepare for it? I have ordered the book and plan to study for it nonstop. How did...

Ok so, I just finished my freshman year. Last semester I got one B+ in a stupid art class, some A-s and then two As. This semester I'll most likely get straight As and so my GPA is good. I volunteer at a soup kitchen, I'm volunteering at a research institute, I shadow a cardiologist and I have...

Hey Everyone, I am writing my OAT in July and I want to be really prepared for this test. It's basically do or die for me. I was hoping if anyone has the OAT destroyer books and they are willing to sell it I would really appreciate it. I was on the OAT destroyer website and was gonna buy the...

Hey! I'm going to be majoring in nutritional science next year at UT and I was wondering what your experiences with this major have been. I'm really interested in nutrition and I feel like it's relatively easier than Chemistry or Biology major. Was the coursework hard?

I had a B+ in chemistry I and I'm going to have to work for a B+ in chemistry II as well. Should I just drop pre med? My gpa is 3.89 currently and as far as my upper maths and biology courses I've gotten As and I'm more of a math person and if AP physics is any indication of gen physics I should...

I went to SUNY Oswego for 2 years as a Zoology major, and I have transferred to SUNY Stony Brook in Fall 2016. Since Stony Brook only accepts C and higher, my organic chemistry 2 grade did not get transferred over. So, as a result, I am retaking it and struggling very badly. Here are my chem...

Hello, I am a freshman in college right now. I would like to know a few stats of accepted MD applicants? I want to know the type of things I should aim for. Right now, I have really good grades, I'm taking Organic Chem Honors over the summer and I do lifeguarding and shadowing at the side. I...

I'm confused as to how the bicarbonate buffer system works. I know it's used to control pH levels of the blood. I know that water and CO2 combine to form carbonic acid. Carbonic acid then produces bicarbonate and H+ in a reversible reaction. But, if pH increases shouldn't H+ be used to reduce...

I never originally in high school thought about becoming a doctor, I always wanted to be a detective, I even got into a school in the top 5% for Criminology. Then reality hit, I found that path not viable. I then decided since I loved helping people so much and helping children especially, I...

Hi guys, I am studying medicine on the 3rd semester, which means we are going through biochemistry. I always looked forward to biochem, as I like when stuff gets really detailed and geeky (such as molecular structures and functions, hard math problems, etc.), but right now I am quite...

(UVA = University of Virginia, Probably regarded as the best public state school in VA) UVA allows visiting students in the summer sessions only. Obviously I did not have the High School grades to get into UVA as a 1st year (freshman.) *BIO I/II in the summer is already a done deal. Would it...

I am a second year student at a reputable private university, and I feel like I am not being challenged enough to where I feel any satisfaction in doing well. I am a biology major, and the biology classes are an absolute bore. Adding onto that, the classes that I am most interested in, which...

So I'm a biochemistry major and most of my classes are biochem classes. I'm assuming that they will be added to my science GPA on my application, but will it be added to biology or chemistry?

cGPA and sGPA: 3.2, double major in engineering science and chemistry (four year breakdown: 3.433, 2.54, 2.412, 3.22, 3.588, 3.175, 3.60; I am planning to achieve a 3.7 in my last semester to continue the upward trend and hit the 3.2 cGPA. The drop off in my second and third semesters is due to...

I have an abnormal feeling of fear, I'm traumatized of pharmacy school. I'm scared of starting being in debt and failing out. I hate math. I don't know how I made it I have several withdraws and repeats. Is it doable? I'm so scared. I'm thinking of changing my major right after school begins ...

Hello! I finished out my first semester as follows: A- English A- Statistics A- Bio Lab B- Bio 1 C- Chemistry 1 My GPA is looking like a 3.3 I'd like to improve my grades come next semester, and I'd like you guy's advice on your own personal study habits, time management skills, etc. What...

Hey guys, New to the forums and a bit on edge! Quick intro: exam 1/19, using EK and their 10 week study program, currently behind by 2 lectures (sigh. Working full time and was in school until a couple weeks ago). I'm doing well with my biology (scoring a scaled 127 on average for my 30 min...
