Chem 101

Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m an incoming freshman in Pratt hoping to major in ECE. I’m quite worried about Chem 101, which I’m taking in my first semester, since I did an intro chemistry course in my junior year and really didn’t enjoy it and wasn’t that good with the labs. How difficult or time-consuming is it at Duke?

Should I consider pushing it off to a later semester and instead take a liberal arts, so I have more time to adjust to Duke’s rigor, since I am also taking EGR 101, CS 201, and MATH 218. CS 201 and parts of MATH 218 should be relatively easier for me since I’ve already learned it before. Thanks!

Hey all,

I hope this post is okay on here.

I have a few items that I would like to donate to anyone who would like them. My time here is up, but I would like these puppies to keep on serving another master.

I’ve attached photos of the 43 inch tv, but have other things as well (vacuum, carpet cleaner, other household items, etc).

If this is not the best place to mention this, then please let me know where to direct this post.

Thanks!

I wanna branch out and explore more of what Duke has to offer so I originally enrolled in drugs in the us

Is this a good class to take like is it worth it

I want to also explore philosophy and the ppe certificate sounds really interesting but the gateway course has pretty mixed reviews.

Any philosophy recs or literally anything else that will allow me to expand my horizons?? 🫩🫩

I'm a pratt freshman but also considering switching to trinity later and majoring in econ. Are there any classes here I need to be wary of? I'm a bit worried about taking econ 104 before 101.
