"I never have any Chemistry and Physics before in high school so this stuff is brand new to me". That's why.
First thing I'd suggest is to relax from worrying about it, that only bums you out and never helps. You seem to be confident in your school abilities, so know that you're perfectly able to both pass but most importantly understand these subjects.
What's helpful is spending time outside of class studying, using any extra resources (google, wikipedia, etc). Many top universities with great professors have online courses that you can watch. Try to do as many examples as you can, form a study group, visit professor's office hours, whatever you can actively do while the quarter is still underway. You can do it!

It's the sophomore humbling. You took a bunch of freshman-level courses, general ed etc. with a high GPA and you think you're unstoppable. If the pre-meds didn't change their major already, now would be the time.
Anyway, it's common for a biochemistry major to have an average GPA... even a 3.4 would be considered good at a top university. Don't be discouraged but realize that you are gonna have to bust your ass to excel, much less survive. The typical STEM major practically lives in the library/lab.
Ahww practice makes success (something like that) you can't expect it to come all that easy to you.. and at the collegiate level you can expect advanced gurl :D
Precisely why I dropped them.. Im a business major :)
You didn't build a foundation in HS. You need to makeup for that defecit now. Get a tutor or go the physics or chem help labs.
These courses are harder in college.
You can do it..

Some concepts and domains are seemingly easier for us to wrap our heads around than others. Chemistry is extremely easy to me, even organic and inorganic chemistry, but I found Sociology to be *extremely* difficult.
It wasn't stimulating, and in my experience, my classmates who struggled with Chem coincidentally struggled to find the field interesting too. Perhaps that may be the issue?
Physics, it's quite abstract and it's difficult for most. You just have to put your head down and grind it out.I am in the final year of high school and my subjects are physics, chemistry. And maths and I find chemistry hard rest all are fine u just need to learn organic chemistry from heart but it will be worth if u did your studies with science as main subjects. Can u tell me your syllabus for your chemistry and physics?
They are so hard because you didn't study them in high school and university is assuming everyone studying them knows lots of them already. But if you already have biochem as major, chemistry should be pretty simple mostly - I think the problem is physics involved everywhere..
You know... after reading that it just came out like.
"I'm not a racist but..."
"No offence , but..."
"With all due respect sir..."
You're bragging lol , there really isn't even a question in that lolBecause if they weren't EVERY half-witted schmuck would be going to the moon!! Do you want guys living in cardboard boxes going to the moon?
Just get some tutoring. That's what I did. Worked wonders.
Keep up with your studies and dont slack. Sometimes you want to go out but dont
