[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is majoring in Civil Engineering. As a freshman, he got a D in Organic Chemistry. I was freaking out, but his advisor said D was passing. It’s a prerequisite for Materials Science, Junior year. I’m prepared to hire a tutor when the time comes to fill in the gaps. He has a GPA lower than 3.0 right now as a sophomore but is getting interviews for summer internships after submitting applications. So I’m not worried.[/quote] Organic Chemistry is a pre req to MatSci, but there is very little overlap in content. He'll be fine. It's not a hard course. By contrast, Calc is fundamental to every subsequent engineering course so a C or C- is not a good sign for future prospects. --Organic chemist[/quote]
