Hi,
I am going to be a sophomore at the University of Michigan this fall. I REALLY slacked my freshman year. I was arrogant and hardly attended class, ending up with a GPA of 2.8 in engineering. Around the second half of second semester, I realized what I was doing and decided to shape up, pulling my GPA up to 3.2. (I hope to make it a 3.5 by the end of this year)
Anyway, I already took gen chem year1, but I did not really take the time to learn the material. I ended up with a B- off of cramming (literally, I was learning new material 5 minutes before the exam). I do not feel confident over the material, and was wondering if you recommend I retake the class, or I just study books and those lecture videos people recommend online? I am also considering taking a Kaplan course? Any recommendations?
