| 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. |
