Bad News: I don't remember chemistry.

I mean, it's been four years since I did any of this stuff, and I quite seriously do not recall ANY of this. I discovered last night that I don't really even remember how to balance equations. *FACEPALM* Although at least THAT's gradually coming back to me as I look over chem help websites.

Ugly News: There'

It's been a while for me too with the chemistry thing, but I might be able to help with some simple stuff. I got a degree so I couldn't have been that bad at it. Although, it's a degree from Trent University...

Thanks for the offer. I went over balancing yesterday, and that, thankfully, all came back fairly quickly. So I know I just need to review...it's frustrating knowing that I DO basically know all of this stuff, but I'm going to have to do hours of extra review to dig it out of my brain and brush the dust off.

Yikes. Hope you start remembering more stuff reallly really soon!
It sounds like what i'm worried about will happen to me this year or in a few years...though being sick i might not have actually learnt it all so...it just might not be in my head at all! Which is then worse...or is it?

It's truly amazing how fast you lose it! I feel especially sorry for someone I've exchanged emails with, who's apparently been out of school for something like 12 years, and now she's trying to do a BSc. So...she seems very driven though, so I'm trying to kind of copy her approach to the work.

Whoa! Out of school for 12 years? I do not believe I could do anything like that. *looks shocked*
