As the title states, is it a bad idea to take physics and general chemistry at the same time? I'm an incoming freshman and would like to finish all of my pre-med reqs before junior year in order to take the MCAT during the Summer. Is it a bad idea if I lay out my schedule something like this?
First Semester:
Gen Chem I
Physics I
Intro to Biochemistry
"Fluff" class
Second Semester:
Gen Chem II
Physics II
Basic human anatomy
"fluff" classes
Third Semester:
Organic Chemistry I
Biology I
Biochemistry
Possible "fluff" class
Fourth Semester:
Organic Chemistry II (with lab)
Biology II
Intro to Sociology
Intro to Psychology
Does taking a schedule like this sound too difficult? Or would it be better to space out my classes a bit more, and take physics and organic chemistry as lone science classes in separate years. I would spend the Summer following fourth semester to prepare for an August MCAT.
