help with HS Chem basics
« on: January 30, 2023, 02:08:08 PM »
Hey, first time posting so sorry if my format is garbage.

I've graduated but I've taken a interest in becoming a biochemist and need to refresh my brain on the basics as I burnt all my school notes when I graduated...

I've enrolled into a online chemistry course but noticed I've completely forgotten everything so I'm looking for what I need to look into and learn to have that basic understanding before I start the actual course.

Thanks,
CT

If it's an intro to chemistry course, you shouldn't really need to do anything since most people taking it will have no prior chemistry experience. Beyond that you may consider purchasing a basic chemistry book (e.g, one of the "for dummies" line).

Typically any HS textbook should be helpful. Plus, if you have ever used one - use it again, it will be easier to refresh from the same source.
