Turn Your Knowledge into Earnings.
The course calendar for my university describes Chem 101 and 102 as "math intensive". However, it doesn't say what kind of math is involved.
What kind of math should I expect in first year chemistry? Would it be helpful to have first year calculus under my belt first?
Let's answer three ways:
Specific expected math Important mathematical skills will include algebra (including understanding variables and constants conceptually), interpreting graphs, and logorithms. There is very little chance you will need to know calculus in first year chemistry. If you have specific concerns, like those described in the comments, your advisor or department assistant should be able to directly address those.
First year chem philosophy A good goal for first year chemistry is to understand fundamental chemistry concepts so that you can apply them in future courses and work. To do this, you need to know enough math that it doesn't prohibit you from understanding the concepts.
Continuing Education This one is just my opinion and I'm sure many will disagree. If you want to work in chemistry, take more math and physics than the department requires. It will give you a more thorough and complete understanding of chemistry. It will give you an edge in the future in solving interesting problems. This can be done in parallel however- the department won't expect that you're doing this.
Bonus: As many people before me have suggested, go to 6-8 classes on syllabus day even if you're only signed up and intending to take 4. Its always better to know your options and theres no risk to going and seeing whats available. In this case, you'll learn if you've got the background the professor expects for this course and can compare it with other options.
No matter what stage you're at in your education or career, TuteeHub will help you reach the next level that you're aiming for. Simply,Choose a subject/topic and get started in self-paced practice sessions to improve your knowledge and scores.
