This course is designed to teach the highly motivated student fundamentals of Chemistry and to prepare her to succeed in further physical science classes at the high school and university level.  The class stresses basic problem solving techniques and understanding of the major theories in Chemistry through written and laboratory work.  Concepts will be studied in greater depth and at a faster pace than in the regular Chemistry class.More advanced mathematical skills will be required.  Since Chemistry is an experimental science, time equivalent to one class per week is spent in the laboratory. UC A-G approved – d Laboratory Science. NCAA approved.
