Were you good at chemistry in school?

[chemistry lad]

?

[Meclazine for Israel]

Yes,

I immediately became enthralled with the valence electrons involved in balancing chemical reactions.

Organic chemistry was an excellent scientific success, and sub-atomic physics and physical chemistry kept me in science right through University up until quantum optics.

[Illiniwek]

Good at chemistry in high school, which wasn't a pushover. It was a college prep school.

But the chemistry in college was impossible. I think it might have just been because the professor was a &%*$#.

[RFayette]

Yes, it was one of my favorite subjects in high school, but I didn't take a single course of it in college (it's seen as a GPA-killer at my school, similar to Illiniwek).

[Mr. Smith]

nope. Too many papers to keep track of and too much Math.

[RFayette]

nope. Too many papers to keep track of and too much Math.

I take it you don't like statistics much.

[SWE]

It was my worst class. It was difficult, boring, I didn't have a very good teacher, and I didn't really care.

[Clyde1998]

No. It was my worst science - Physics was always my best. I did manage to pass the Chemistry paper in my Science GCSE however, which I wasn't expecting to do.

[Confused Democrat]

I only took high school chemistry, and I passed with an A.

[Crumpets]

No. I have always been a physics person when it comes to science, and in my brain, there is little overlap between the two. I got pretty consistent B minuses, except for the final, which I did very well on, and ended up getting a B for the class as a whole. IIRC I also got a 4 on the AP, so I suspect I was just in a pretty difficult class with lots of people who were very good at chemistry, and I might have done better in a more average class.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

In high school, solid C. 

[Enduro]

I'm terrible at it. Just getting by, but I do like the experiments and am pretty good at them.

[Torie]

Yes I was. And I loved it. Physics however was a chore, partially because of a mediocre teacher. Maybe physics is too close to mechanical reasoning, where I am absolutely horrible. I tested out in high school as slightly below average in mechanical reasoning. I was clueless!

[MarkD]

Yes.
I remember reading Isaac Asimov's "The World of Carbon" and "The World of Nitrogen" before I even started high school.
Although in college I ended up majoring in another subject, I still think I ought to re-enroll in a university and start taking courses that point me in the direction of becoming a pharmacist.

[politicallefty]

Yes, I excelled in Chemistry. I took it twice in high school, both Honors and AP. I got a 95% in the former and a 97% in the latter (i.e. both being a 5-point "A" each). Fortunately, I had a good lab partner in both classes (with the same teacher), the latter class with an actual friend (who cared about his grade too).

[Coolface Sock #42069]

Good enough to get my bachelor's degree in it.

[dax00]

physics:
high school - B+ ; taught by a nigerian who moved to canada and made the trip to boston from toronto every morning ($500 daily travel expenses paid). was allowed one page of equations and formulas to look at during tests/quizzes - never made one. graded on functionality and accuracy of motors, catapult, a spectrometer, etc., all of which we had to build (ugh)
college - A ; easy and enjoyable

chemistry:
high school - A- ; thank goodness the albanian substitute who studied in moscow took over for the intolerable pole, who got pregnant. loved the experiments.
haven't taken chemistry in college

note: my (public) high school had a $13mil budget

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Nope. I took it my sophomore year of high school and barely passed the "enriched" (basic level) class.

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

I got an A in my Chemistry A-Level. I still think i could have got an A* if it weren't for the fact i suck at practicals (although seeing as i got like a D in my first taking of AS Chem, I'm not complaining).

Organic Chemistry was the best iirc.

[Holmes]

It's my profession.

[fhtagn]

Was really good at it in high school, but terrible at it in college.

[Boston Bread]

Very good in high school. But I admit I'm not the best when it came to the hands on stuff. Nonetheless got an A+ in both 11th and 12th grade chem. Didn't take any chemistry classes in college, and I don't plan too.

[Bakersfield Uber Alles]

I did great in high school and general chem in college. Organic chem and biochem? Not so much.

[Pessimistic Antineutrino]

In AP Chemistry right now, and the answer is a solid nope.
