I have used HomeSat for a few years for science and have been happy with it, but my kids are getting ready to start high school, and I was wondering how Apologia science would compare. It looks to me like it would take less time. They have a book, a CD with additional video clips and experiments, and even an audio CD of the book for one of my kids that has reading difficulties. Has anyone out there used the Apologia Science?

I'm trying to help someone with a translation and I'm not sure if I understand the exact meaning of this expression. I can guess it means something along the lines of "reaching a conclusion" or "putting the facts together to draw a conclusion", but maybe someone can give me a clearer explanation.

General Chemisty.

In order to get to med school next year I have to have A in all of the above. I'm really good in them and I have awesome professor , except in General Chemistry. He is a terrible teacher and he has no idea what he is taking about and all he does is yell at us and says that we don't even deserve to be here. Anyways should I get a tutor in this subject cuz I have no idea what he is saying or should I try to read the book and understand myself. Though I am against having tutor by that I mean having a tutor myself, is by doing this I'm broking my principles or it's okay to ask for help? I'm so confused and the university adminstration didn't let me change sections.
