I am sorry but it does look kind of bad to fail the same class twice. How are the rest of your classes? You should have learned from the first F you received. I believe your precalc grade will affect your overall GPA.
To be honest, you shouldn't be having any trouble with precalculus. There are much tougher classes out there that you still need to take.
first i want to say thank you for responding and for the advice i appreciate it.
but i have only taken chem 1(this semester) and im going to pull an A most likely, i aced all my exams this semester, i wil be talking chem 2 over the summer and bio in the fall, im just not good in math period that is why im struggling but i do need to study better it just sucks i should have been more serious about it

Who told you adcoms care about calc but not pre-calc?
I don't think adcoms care that much about any math course. HOWEVER, they will raise eyebrows when they see you took the same class twice and failed it.
Anyways, its not the end of the world, just be more serious with future classes.... and stop failing lol
