Brief Course Description: During the week that we are together, we will look at the entire AP* Chemistry curriculum, the 2008 Test (fresh from the reading), and the labs that make for a good Advanced Placement Program. I like to think of this week as a time to share. I know that you will come away with a better understanding of AP* Chemistry, because I always learn from each presentation that I conduct.
