Lower senior year course load question

[coasterfan12]

I had a quick question regarding whether or not my lighter senior course load would look negatively on my application. In terms of my total graded credit hours from freshman to senior, it would be 26, 38, 38, and 24 hours respectively. My sophomore and junior hours are a bit higher since I did take summer classes (~6 credits there) during those years. I am taking a lower course load during my senior year since I was focusing on my senior thesis and also the fact that I have finished taking most classes required for my major, but I was wondering if this trend would look troubling for med schools.

Not at all a problem.

It won’t even be noticed!

There are no bonus points for schedule overloading. It takes time to write a thesis. You will be fine.
