Awesome

If you take Dr. Lau for General Chemistry I & II that will be your best decision. The tests are hard but you will grow confident as your grades improve and the semester progresses. She assigns "outcome" questions in class. Use them! And take advantage of her office hours. I was losing hope until I started getting 100's on the exams.
