So currently I have not been doing well in any of my classes this semester.
I am taking
a french class
Biochem 1
Calc 2
Physics ( with calculus) course. ( at my school physics is a three semesters but I am only required to take the second one)
More particularly the classes I think may be the most challenging is calc and physics.
I honestly just want to go to med school and am not planning to to actually do much of anything with a chem degree.
I had thought by being a bio major I , I would be technically just be memorizing( I know sorry that may sound offensive to bio majors) and be maybe cheating my self of getting to really learn how to think and understand analytically(?), and of developing great problem solving skills ...
I also that a chem degree would help me get some kind of better jon than if I came out with a bio degree( someone said something like wiith a bachelors you can only really get a job working in a lab , something like that .They just made it sound bad)
I really think I am supposed to be a doctor.
To be honest, I guess I thought having chem degree would make me look more better or honorable ( yeah bad motive).However if I keep getting the same grades I'm getting now instead of honor, I',m going to end up looking stupid.
I'm really leaning toward being a bio major but is it necessarily going to be easier? I
mean, I know that I need to manage my time more better and spend less time on facebook and youtube. But on the other hand i is well know how paticularly challenging a course like calc-based physics can be and being a premed I need to keep my GPA high.
choices,choices..
I actually took calc 1 an d 2 before and have credit for them, but I had been out of school for awhile....I ended up taking calc 1 at the school I'm at and got a D,( yeah really bad...don't even get me started on what my GPA was last semester..)
this semester I'm taking calc 2 and have not been doing well either
Also Right now bio seems like it would be more interesting for me to do also than chem...
BTW I am a junior
Can any bio majors on here weigh on, on what its like and takes to successfully get a biochem degree? And do you know if its easier? Has anyone else on here switched from a chem to bio degree and noticed a difference.?
