I'm looking for a college in California, or near California, that
offers the full-year sequence of General Chemistry. Some colleges
offer all three quarters of Gen. Chem. but they don't offer them to be
taken as a sequence. For instance, they might offer the first and
third quarter during the first session of summer and then the second
quarter during the second session of summer classes. I have found one
college that does offer it, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, but it's
too far away. I need one in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, or
Arizona. I need as many schools listed that offer the full sequence.

This question may need to be answered after March 6, 2006 because of
the release of most college summer sessions schedules... Thank you so
much!!!

I taught a section of "accelerated" general chemistry one summer, and
while it may be approprite (or unavoidable) for some people, I don't
recommend it.  The main problem is that there is so much material to
cover that the class has to move along very rapidly.  This means that:
1) students have very little time to assimilate and "think over" new
information.  You have to learn it fast, because tomorrow you'll be
learning something new.
2) if you get sick, or miss class for any reason, it is extremely
difficult to "catch up" again, there just isn't time

Many students find general chemistry to be challenging under any
circumstances, and trying to learn it all fast is that much more
difficult.
