At Rutgers University, there are few undergraduate classes as brutal as Intro to Chemistry.
First-semester freshmen often take the class in lecture halls with more than 400 students. Many struggle to grasp the concepts in the fast-moving course, which is a requirement for most science majors.
By the end of the semester, about a quarter of students will either flunk chemistry or drop the course.
