Chemistry isn't the easiest discipline at North Carolina A&T. The department includes a series of labs, different chemistry classes, a substantial amount of math, and most importantly, a lot of commitment. In order to be successful in chemistry, you have to study for hours and learn every aspect of the subject. It is crucial that you set goals and adhere to them. Nothing is impossible.

Figuring out how to solve equations is the hardest part, mainly to make sure you have the right measurements and calculations. Practicing your equations and guiding your way towards the right answer is a skill that must be mastered.
You must read before beginning an experiment. When you read through the steps before you complete them, double check everything the book says so that you don't miss a step. Otherwise, the experiment will fail.
What's an experiment without the necessary materials? Absolutely nothing. Having everything you need in front of you prior to performing your experiment will help ensure you can go through all of the steps smoothly.
The importance of measurements cannot be overstated. It's important to keep an eye on the amount when pouring from one container to another. You will not have the expected results if this doesn't happen.
Everyone looks forward to the outcome of the experiment. As a student, you learn to observe and determine what something looked like and why it turned out that way. Science is a fascinating discipline.
