Advanced scholars Advanced chemistry hy do seniors choose to take advanced chemistry: Most are interested in continuing their study of chemistry more inten- sively, in preparation for careers in medicine, engineering, or statistics, or simply because they want to learn more. Advanced chemistry is actually a college freshman chemistry course which uses a college text book, states Mr. Boner who has taught the course since its introductuion at Randallstown in September, 1970. The course is basically a conglom- eration of basic chemistry topics cov- ered in a regular chemistry class which are studied more comprehen- sively, as well as some more difficult calculus-based material. John McKay believes that the course is well taught and should be taken in high school since many peo- ple take it as a freshman chemistry 204!Levy-McDermott Y Electronics is a major unit in advanced phys- ics. Chris Chesnakas solders a printed circuit board, an integal part of his volt-ohm meter project. Advanced physics hat course should the ad- vanced science student en- , roll in if he is not interested in either biology or chemistry? Aaron Pearlman experienced this dilemma. His solution? Aaron en- rolled in advanced physics. I liked physics last year, so I took it this year. Similarly, Chris Chesnakas takes the course because he enjoys the sub- ject and because his advanced phys- ics background will make his college science courses easier. Advanced physics is a relatively new course at Randallstown due to a previous lack of interested students. Classes are still rather small, but an increasing number of students are recognizing the importance of a strong physics background in such career fields as engineering, physical science, and mathematics, states Mr. Hoover, who has taught the class since its beginning. Like the other advanced sciences, advanced physics is a college fresh- man course which covers the basic college physics topics. Stacey Bloom finds the course to be extremely in- teresting, but difficult. Students in advanced physics are generally of an extremely high cali- ber, remarks Mr. Hoover. For exam- ple, Stacey Bloom expects to study computer science and Chris Chesna- kas is interested in becoming a me- chanical engineer. The course is also arranged to help students score highly on advanced placement tests, if they elect to take them. ' Advanced physics is not for every- one, of course, but is worth looking into for students who feel they are capable or interested in physics. sciences attract course anyway. Susan Carter .adds that the labs are extensive- it's not just 'book work'g referring to the ma- jority of independent work the ad- vanced chemistry students do. Arnie Mellits agrees that the course is beneficial for anyone inter- ested in science, especially chemis- try, as he is planning to major in sci- ence in college. The course is also recommended for any student who wishes to take the advanced placement in chemis- try, although only a few students presently taking the course are plan- ning to take the test. Mr. Boner casually guarantees an A to any advanced chemistry gra- duate in his first year of medical school and a fairly good score on the advanced placement test, if he chooses to take it. With all this and more going for it, advanced chemistry is an excellent option to consider for the advanced science student. Just ribbing around, Mr. Wenck. Susan Ikin jests with the demonstrator skeleton in ad- vanced biology. Bones are now made of plastic because actual skeletons are expensive and in short supply.
