Math Worksheets

Question: Did everything that you learn in high school help you alot in college?

I am a high school senior currently taking a CP chemistry class. My teacher is so LAZY that I don’t I have learned anything so far. She only gives us worksheet and read the textbook by ourselves. She only teaches how to do stuff like once a week. I feel like I am not learning as much as I am supposed to. Next year I will be going to community college and planning on majoring in chemistry then continue to pharmacy school. In community college I know i have to take a placement test, but I am not sure if its going to be in chemistry or just english and math. I have a pretty good math background and currently studying pre-calculus. I am just scared that I will not understand anything once I start learning chemistry in college due to this unfortunate situation. What do you think?. Do I really need a strong background in chemistry to do well in college?

Answer: High school was a total waste of time for me. I took a ton of AP classes and can tell you that they are a joke compared to college. I learned a great deal while in high school because I spent most of my time working (and actually became the youngest regional sales manager for a major brand).

Colleges understand that kids are coming from different quality schools and are going to invest significant amounts of time for the first few weeks to get everyone onto the same page. Don’t worry about it.
