'''<u>Honors Chem:</u>''' Dr. Acree is teaching Honors Chem - in general the course is pretty similar to general chemistry. He really wants people to get the concepts, so make sure you study those for the tests, because not all the questions are just plugging in formulas. He has tests from previous years on his website, so definitely check those out, because they look VERY similar to the tests he’ll give you.

'''<u>Gen Chem:</u>''' The biggest difference between honors and gen is that the classrooms include UNT students. You will most likely have professor Broadway or Weber first semester and professor Mcafee, Petros or Kelber second semester. The tests vary but they test both conceptual and application. You will most likely not be given any formulas, so you really have to study and know the material well to do well on the tests. Make sure to start studying early and take good notes during lecture. Dr. Petros records her lectures (both video and audio), so you can see and hear exactly what she covered that day. Recitation is once a week and it's where you get put into a group of 5-6 people (combined with both UNT and TAMS students) and complete a worksheet.

<u>'''Chem Lab:'''</u> In addition to the lecture class, you also have a chem lab (both semesters) that is once a week. You are graded based on your labs (accuracy) and some TAs might have pre lab quizzes. You will need to provide your own goggles which you can either get from a TAMS senior or buy your own (organizations around TAMS [RO!!!!] sell them in the beginning of the year, so don't go out buying them). One thing worth noting is that there is a mix of UNT and TAMS students for a few labs.

'''Pre-Calculus'''

'''Pre-Calculus'''

For Precalculus, you will probably have either Dr. Brozovic, Dr. Tran, or Dr. Iaia. All of these teachers have very different styles of teaching and the structure of each class is also very different. What they do have in common is that they go extremely fast. You will cover what a typical high school student cover over two semesters in one semester. You will be given homework a few times a week, and lengthiness and difficulty depends on the teachers. If you’re placed in precal then your cal 1 teacher is going to be the same.

'''Calculus I'''

'''Calculus I'''

Most students start at Calculus 1, and usually the professor you get for Cal 1 will also be your professor for Cal 2. There are two professors teaching Cal 1, Dr. Mann and Dr. Naresh. Be sure to do every homework assignment and try to turn them in on time. Reading the textbook, taking notes in class, doing the hw, reviews, and studying for tests leads to a good grade.
