This course will cover the same material that is taught during the year-long Chemistry class. Thus, the pace will be fast and the workload intense.
  
  Students must attend at least 120 hours of the class to receive credit. Students should expect at least one hour of homework nightly in addition to time spent studying for tests, quizzes, and the semester exams.
