Oops.

So I didn't do very well on that second chem test either. 71. Ew. I'm meeting with my professor tomorrow to get some advice. We only have 2 weeks left in class, so I'm worried that I can't turn this grade around before it's over. Gah, I hope he gives some extra credit or something. I am doing OK in the lab, I think. I've made 100s on all labs but one, and that was a 97.5. Hopefully I did OK on the exam in lab last week. We have another chem test this Friday, and then another one the following Thursday, and then that's the end. Praying that something clicks here soon.

Chemistry is another language

And I don't seem to be speaking it very well.  I'm going to class, taking notes, reading the chapters, working the examples, everything I can think of! I didn't do really well on the first test. We had our second test today and I'm hoping I did better. I keep thinking I'll look back on this and it will make sense. I really hope so, anyway. I still have more chemistry in my future.
In other news, I have experienced an example of the stereotypical pre-med student. She is in my chem2 class, and she can be a trial. She's rude to the teacher, she corrects him constantly, and she asks questions that she already knows the answers to. I'm not sure what she's trying to accomplish, but if it's getting on EVERYONE'S nerves, she can mark that goal off her list. Dude, she is not pleasant.
So here's me hoping that all this studying finally starts sticking and I get a good grade in chemistry this time around. I do have to prove to my adviser that I can juggle. ;)
