Ok,
I need some advice here for Spring semester. Right now I am registered for Organic 2(with lab), Biochem(without lab), and physics 2 for spring. My background is that I have an A so far in Organic 1 this semester(unless I mess up drastically on the final🙂, I have an A- in Physics 1 but that was two years ago. So I am worried because I am sort of an anti-physics person. I did well, but I worked hard for that A-. What does anyone think about my next semester schedule??? Also I will be taking an MCAT review course. Anyone is this schedule appropriate if I want to earn all A's?
Thanks so much
J.
 
You'll work hard for the A in physics II as well, but it probably doesn't matter much that you took the first part a long time ago. Physics II subject matter is generally electricity, magnetism, optics, sound--related to but very different from the mechanics you studied first semester. O-chem gets more intense second semester, but if you really have a solid foundation, it'll all make sense.

However, if your physics course requires a lab, you're looking at a reaaaaaaally heavy courseload. O-chem lab can be brutal just in sheer hours you're in the lab. Add a review course to that schedule and it sounds pretty fierce.

If you need to fit all this in for apps next fall, maybe you should consider taking either one of those courses or the MCAT review over the summer.

Just my 2 cents....
