I was never one to to amazingly in chemistry but i did get through it none the less. I found that studying everything and anything the professor threw at me realy paid off. Just like in any course i would study practice nd practice until i hardy made any mistakes. Thats pretty much the advice id have in general for any course youre having trouble with. If there was ever one things that will always help its work. I know easier said than done but with a little help from an outside source it can be done.

I did well in chem one, but i hated (and still hate) chemistry. To be honest it required a good amount of discipline. I practiced by doing all of the practice questions in my chem book. I would keep up with when each test was and then determine how many questions I would have to do each week in order to get them done before the test and I usually gave myself enough time to get them done a second time if I felt I needed it. I also worked with other people in my class who were doing well and I wasn't afraid to ask questions. So, I'd have to agree with the other post that you have to be active in getting the grade you want. If your book doesn't have practice problems you can also find some online. It can be difficult, but it can be done.
