Will not Taking AP History/Euro kill my chances?

Eh, it’s pretty tough with little chemistry background, but I’m sure you’ll do fine. The only chemistry background I had was a year of AP Chem with a fairly mediocre teacher (I was one of two students who scored 3, everyone else got 1 or 2).

The thing about my 5.111 class was, the first pset was basically a review of high school chemistry, so I wasn’t able to solve about half of the questions on my own. Fortunately, the rest of the psets cover 5.111 related material, and can all be done with very little previous chemistry background.
