Chemistry 2 Summer

Has anyone done chemistry 2 in the summer?
i've heard its hard as it is, and plus being in summer, i'm assuming its harder...
Please share some thoughts if youve done it during semester or even during summer!
Thanks  :)

I did. Content should be the same as semester 2. It may be harder in the sense that you're learning it twice as fast, but I think it's easier because you only have to concentrate on the one subject, rather than 4.

This is also true for most subjects.  I've done Finance 1 over summer and that was a little different because it was already easy in the normal semesters and over summer, it was even easier.

It's also going to be even harder because in summer the temperature gets very hot and that makes it hard to study.

Some material is also left uncovered/unassessed, which makes it easier.

Really? Well I wouldn't know, cause I did pretty bad in it... Was too cocky and thought I could cram the course in 3 nights, but my memory is nowhere near as tank as some of my friends..

Just do it over summer.  Nothing is going to change between now and 8 months time.

If you work hard, you will be fine. :)

So you say you only reviewed the entire course in 3 nights? With/out any progressive study? If I remember you said you got 79?

How the fuck do people remember these things LOL. But yeah. I crammed chem 1 in 4 nights and got 95 so... probably needed a night or two more for chem 2.

edit: yes, without progressive study. Although chem 1 was a lot easier though imo

Chem 2 was easier for me. I got a higher mark for chem 1, but I crammed chem 2 in 5 days or so. Did no study during the semester except for MST but i went to all my tuts to have a general idea what was going on
