I took physics and chemistry classes in high school. Fortunately for me the teacher was a far better math teacher than any math teacher in the building save one. I made it through it because the dude taught me math.

Where I went to school, Physics was known as "Pre-Business" among the engineering students. When I got a D on my first exam, I know I considered it.

As an aside, statistics online was some bullshit as well. I can't count the number of times I would submit the answer to the wrong decimal point (I'd answer .0034 but they were looking for .003) and get absolutely no credit for it. The instructions were often unclear and despite knowing the material and getting the "right" answer, I'd end up with no credit whatsoever. **** online math classes.

I took stats with a TI-89 which apparently rounds differently than the 83/84 which was the "required" calculator and I missed points on tests because my calculator would round differently and the teacher was grading based on the results from his 83. Whatever, still finished with a 95%.

Calculus based physics was pretty mind numbing

I hate Gen Chem 2, specifically the lab. Kinetics just was blah.

Added to the fact that I had to be on the course for golf practice after noon at that time, so I had the lab at 7 30 am.

I didn't mind the Gem Chem 2 labs, although kinetics was no fun, especially the occasions when we had to use the quadratic formula.

I'm certainly not looking forward to a seven hour Pharmacotherapy III class, though.

And I just had a semester of it, basically, dental related drugs and the basic level of other drugs used everyday that I need to be able to recognize.

the best man in my wedding was in pharmacy school at the same time I was in dental school and seeing some of the shit they had to do, ugh.

Well if anyone needs help with pharmacology studies just PM "acmom" (yes she has an account, sadly) She knows her shit. Got her degree in Clinical Pharmacology from KCMO.
