I'm currently taking two, 8 week online summer classes: gen chem 2 and American government. Now, the American government is pretty chill but gen chem 2 is completely burning me out. I have to spend at least 5 hours almost everyday just do study/do homework for the class and its destroying me mentally. I already struggled with gen chem 1 and now this is so much worse. I don't have anyone I can really speak to other than the professor but I have no idea where to begin if I were to ask him a question. The main issue is that we go through so much material in such a small amount of time that its impossible to get through and understand it all. I try to read the chapter, watch the lecture videos, then do pratice and it just takes too much time. And even though I said gov is easy, im so tired from chem that I have little energy to study for gov. I was considering dropping the classes but at the same time, I already received my fafsa money for the classes and I'll need to take these two classes anyways as they're required for me to graduate. Should I just power through and try and pass? I'm pretty sure I can pass chem if I barely pass each exam. If so, what's the best way to hang on and not completely burn out?

I made a post here a few weeks ago asking for some advice on taking chem during the summer and I'm still really struggling. I just barely passed the first exam and I've been trying to get better for the next exam. The issue is that I need yo study two full chapters between every exam (each exam is two weeks apart, so about a chapter a week). What I've tried to do is read some of the chapter in the textbook, watch the lecture, and attempt the practice problems given during the lecture. This strategy has not been working well because I feel like im just passively seeing the info and not actually understanding it. There are so many formulas and exceptions to rules that I feel like its impossible to remember all of it. A huge problem I've noticed for myself is that whenever I see a question, I have no idea where to start to solve it. Like, I don't know what formula to use or what the first step should be, even though we have a formula sheet provided to us. The math itself isn't really bad, its just that its so much information that its burning me out. I can handle studying 5 hours on a subject everyday but the issue is I feel like im not truly learning anything, so I feel like im wasting time. Do yall have advice on how to navigate through this?

I just started my chem 112 class this week and I haven't done much yet. On the syllabus, my professor says it will take "approximately" 30 hours every week to do all the work, which seems absolutely crazy. I already struggled quite a bit in chem 111, and that was during a regular semester and I felt like we were going too fast. Looking at my course, it seems like there are three, hour and a half recorded lectures for each chapter, and we are gonna go through two chapters each week. It seems unrealistic to watch all of these videos every week while also taking notes. The slideshow, chapter summary, and teaching notes are all posted as well though, so that might be useful. Anyways, whats the best way to go about studying for this class?

Trying to save some money so I've decided to replace the part myself. Does anyone know a reliable website to order the Control Board from? It seems like these two are the cheapest but I've read that they are unreliable so I just want to make sure:

So I've recently lost some weight which means that most of my pants have become too big for me to wear so I'm looking to get some new pairs. Unfortunately, it seems like lots of brands are unreliable and barely last. Do yall know any reliable brands that j should look into? Especially jeans, as I definitely want a pair or two of jeans, but any pants brands work.
