Which Premed subject gave/gives you the most trouble?

[stoic]

For me it's physics, hands down. I hate that **** so much! Physics II is even more boring the second time around....

Well, I dunno, Physics for me was entertaining... every day the instructor would come in and start a 30 minute story that usually went... "One time I was stoned..." or "One time I saw aliens..." or my personal favorite "One time I was stoned and saw aliens..." *

I pick g-chem cuz I didn't start to like it until the practical stuff started kicking in during gchem 2. My gchem 1 prof didn't set himself on fire NEARLY as much as my gchem 2 prof... and honestly, in the great scheme of things, that's what really matters, right?

* = one of the "perks" of summer school physics.

i'm going to say bio. the rest are more or less a piece of cake compared to bio ;o.

 

[rockit]

cell bio.

pure drudgery

 

[calstudent]

physics: my professor kept proving all the formulas: necessary, but we didn't do any examples!

 

[Medikit]

Cell Biology. It's not really a prereq though.

 

[juniper456]

physics sucks. gonna ruin my GPA.

 

[DoctorMalki]

G- Chem by far... I was a little freshman who had no idea what was going on

 

[liverotcod]

Physics II. We had 20 page problem sets every week, with proofs. I learned a lot, but in too much depth to be of much use on the MCAT.

Physics without a doubt. Not that I loved Organic Chem but I though that was easier.

 

[MeMyselfI]

Organic Chem can completely suck at my school depending on the professor.

 

[scooter31]

Reading.

 

[IndyZX]

gchem -- boring.

 

[Fermata]

Second semester gen chem/physics.

 

[NubianPrincess]

Non of the above. The honors humanities were the ones that killed it.

Yes, but were they premed courses, Your Highness?

 

[rambo]

Ochem 1 and 2. We've had the same professor through the same sequence, and here we are in semester 2, and our curves are still set at 35/100. And I consider that to be a bit too high. Why? Well, it's due to the fact that out of the 40 remaining students (from a pool of 200+ first semester), 6 of them are chemistry grad and doctoral students who are retaking the class and scoring 70's. I can't imagine the curve if they weren't around.

 

[VeganSoprano]

Calculus! Urgh.

 

[ElKapitan]

I took Orgo in the summer. During that same semester I lived in a roach infested house. I also momentarily had a run in with the law. Ah yes, I hate organic Chemistry and I hate that summer.

BTW general physics is the most failed class nation wide.

 

[NubianPrincess]

Reading isn't a pre-med course either

Hey weave-me alone. I was bored and at work and I wanted to be in the conversation too

 

[fun8stuff]

u guys saying physics must mean calc based physics, because trig based is cake.... i have taken many upper level bio and chem classes, yet looking back it seems i worked the hardest in organic...

Great Class , but very very frustrating ..

I liked physics.

Organic was pretty tough though.

 

[superdevil]

gchem -- boring.

A-MEN.

Same here...I loved some of the theories presented in the class about strings, antigravity particles, etc....but, god, I freakin hated studying for those stupid tests (especially harmonics: what the hell do i care about harmonics?)

 

[Will Ferrell]

No doubt in my mind that it is english.

I hear ya on that one.

 

[swolebrah]

None, all of those have been fun classes.

I hate classes like Government, Economics, and other bull sh%$ classes I have to take for my degree requirement. Hate sitting down and having to go through the reading for that.

 

[Lucca]

Physics is the most challenging, but not boring.

Order of fun:
1. Organic Chemistry (lol hate me if you want to)
2. Physics (so against the grain)
3. Biology
4. Gen Chem I
5. Gen Chem II (seriously who gives a **** about solutions, a monkey can do those for me)

People are #stillmad at Physics

 

[BamaNicole]

physics.....ugh

 

[AlbinoHawk DO]

Gen Chem hands down. **** that class.

 

[TspCapacity]

Physics, by far. Me + no physics taken in high school (if only I knew) + calc-based physics + crappy professor = MAJOR STRUGGLES + GPA KILLER. The Physical Science section on the MCAT was my worst subscore.

Also, this thread is from 2004 wow???
