Equilibrium is VERY important (I’ll admit that I never quite mastered it). Your situation sounds much like mine was last year- dry, strict, tough teacher, the Brown book, etc… except that I took it as a junior and without any previous studying. As for memorizing, on the AP exam it is only necessary to memorize the most BASIC of the basic formulae for the multiple choice section. After that, you get the equation packet that gives pretty much any equation you’ll ever need. Make sure you are able to do all of the sample problems within the text, and do a few of the problems at the end of each chapter if you need extra practice. However, I found chem (5/800) much, much easier than AP Bio (5/740). Best of luck!
