I'm currently a neuroscience and philosophy double major, going into my senior year this upcoming Fall. I was wondering if I could get some advice on whether or not I should drop my neuroscience major. I have 3 classes left in neuroscience. Neuroscience is interesting to me, and I'm taking two upper-level neuro electives in the fall that I'm really excited for, but the last neuro class that I would have to take in the spring consistently has horrible ratings/reviews of the professor. I've taken my fair share of courses with poor professors, and would really love to not have to go through that again, especially in my senior spring. Instead, I've got my eye on an advanced organic chem/drug synthesis class (awesome reviews, super interesting), and it's at the same time as the last neuro class I would have to take (can't register for both). I've gone through my undergrad career taking a bunch of neuro and bio classes, and I've been working in a neuroimaging lab for the past 2 years, likely with a publication or two coming out of that research before I apply to med school next summer.
Has anyone been in this kind of situation before? Advice? Should I suck it up and take the last class, or should I just drop neuro now, take the two interesting courses I'm registered for, and not have to worry about the class in the spring? I figure college is my last chance to take super interesting courses that I'll never be able to take ever again, so why waste it on a bad class/bad prof, but I'm so close..........?????
