Back to OP- I took both. If you like science, they are enjoyable classes, yes even fun. It’s great to understand how things work. I don’t see how they can be directly integrated into Torah, but like all science courses, the more you learn about how complex the world is, how perfect and complex is the human body, for example, the more it leads you to think about the Awesomeness of the Borei, and appreciate the b’ria. unlike some who think science is apikorsus, I think it depends how you look at it- if you are an atheist/non-believer, then you can use science to advance your theories of a G-dless world, and your interpretations of how you observe the world will follow your beliefs. However, if you believe in G-d who created the world, then everything you learn in science just re-inforces this belief. even evolutionary theory can lead you to believe in Creation- when you see how improbable it is for all those mutations to occur in just the right combination at just the right time to make even small changes within a species, then the only conclusion is that there must be a borei.
“She had no problem with Organic Chem, it was all math and memorization…”
I disagree with CT’s comment here- as far as I remember, Gen Chem is much more math based than orgo, and A&P involves much more memorization than Orgo.
Orgo needs logic and lots of brain power- if you understand the concepts and how to apply them, you can do well. Concepts in A&P are easier, I think, but you need to learn lots of terms, definitions, you need to be organized and have a good memory for detail. Personally, I found the skills needed for Orgo easier than A&P, but that is just my personality.
