Can you be successful in a class called fundamentals of organic and biochem if you never had chemistry?

Take it a step at a time, and you'll be fine. Basically, chemistry can seem kind of confusing...I took college level chem at age 15, in high school, and it was the first time I ever took chemistry. If I could have come out of that with an A, so you can as well. The first month, my grade was a D, and I was loathing it, then, like a sonic boom, something snapped inside my head, and it all became so simple. I had a very difficult time understanding valences and what not, but by the time we go to Organic Chemistry, it was a breeze. A lot of chemistry is basic math, and if you're a logical person it should not be difficult. I personally love orgo and biochem...and all chem. I hope you will too. Also, doing experiments and messing about with chemicals and beakers while wearing a lab coat makes you feel like some sort of evil genius. It's fun.

Also, the class is called FUNDAMENTALS for a reason. Don't sweat it!

Almost everyone takes general chemistry first.

Anyway, I thought that both general AND organic chemistry were requirements for both pre-med and for nursing. Unless your organic course also teaches chemistry fundamentals, then I'd take general chemistry first.

And I passed general chemistry but found that organic was WAY harder (there's a lot of rote memorization of chemical reactions in organic.)

even as i become in college I had this math classification at like 7:00 AM and that i worked till useless night. I many times slept late and neglected my math classification. That become the firstclass I ever flunked out of. yet I were given my attractiveness sleep and that is all that concerns. It become truly in simple terms not something more advantageous than a extreme college algebra classification so i did not take it heavily. yet Yeah- skipping a classification is a procedures off the cool meter. you're so Cool that the cool meter can't degree your coolness.

You need the basics first. Take the chemistry class, as it will be a pre-requisite most likely, or very helpful in, understanding pharmacology. Chemistry is not that hard.
