2. What standards do you need to improve the most?

3. What are your work completion (WC) grades? How do these compare to your academic grades?

4. What group (or groups) of standards are your strongest? (The standards are grouped by number: 5=acids/bases, 6=solutions, 7=thermochem., 8=reaction rates, 9=equilibrium, 10=biochem., 11=nuclear.)
