AGREED I <3 BIO. Chem is interesting though its just i hate the equation element of it, not the CH3COOH + H2O -> CH3COO + H3O their simple, its like find the molarity of this etc. that i hate

'science' isn't so much about memorising (which is chockabloc in bio) compared to conceptual things, which is more prevalent in chem

i find the mathy parts to be much more fun than the info-y stuff

there's a reason why people say bio is applied chem which is applied phys which is applied maths
maths being the best 'science', and bio being sorta a bit down
it's so much memorising and not much application of 'science'

Re: Is chemisty freaking awesome?

Chem opens a lot of doors. Although a few courses remain that require you to have chem as a prerequesite subject many courses require you to have some knowledge of chemistry. It also happens to be a well scaling science subject.
