currently planning to take.

elective chem course (3cred, easy, fun)
elective humanity course focusing on science/health (3cred, easy, fun)
general biochem 2 (3cred, tough, required)
general biochem lab (6cred, apparently worse class ever, required for major)*
a-chem lab (1cred, easy, required)
general microbio lecture (3cred, study-heavy, required)
general microbio lab (1cred, average science lab, required)**


* = have to take in the spring semester if I want to do a student-lab assistant position
** = must have taken before graduation but how would schools look at me when I apply without microbio?

full-time student = 12-19cred

What is the question here?

A large number of schools will look at you without microbiology, although it is heavily recommended (it's very helpful)
 
The schedule looks fine, unless you are planning to do something like study for the MCAT at the same time. Labs, as you already know, aren't necessarily difficult, but they are time-consuming and it can make volunteering and clinical experience hard to schedule.
 
seems like a little overkill. why are you wanting to take so many classes at once? like raiderette said, you need to be doing ECs as well as having a social life.
