| CHEMISTRY |
|
Chemistry introduces
students to the theoretical
principles behind basic
inorganic chemical concepts.
The course covers advanced
chemical principles and
mathematical problems that will
prepare a student for further
Chemistry study at the college
level. It is highly
recommended that students have
at least a B in previous
math and science courses.
Chemistry requires that students
come to the course with the
ability to perform advanced
algebraic operations and
independently solve word
problems. This course requires
laboratory work. |
