Sam,
I’m in gchem right now. It is not the lowest level gchem offered. The math is easy if you’ve ever had 2nd year algebra in high school.
Comparing law school to technical science courses is not a good logic game. I think one of the docs on here, once said she took one course her first semester, ace’d it, and never looked back.
Seemed like good advice for me - I took it. My summer schedule has me in gchem 2 only, nothing else. Full time starts in Sept.
