i need you guys' opinions on this schedule.......here are the classes im registered 4 fall........

physics II (engineering series)
chem II
Bio I
Physiology
US History

is this a little bit too much?
 
How do we know if that's too much for you. We don't know your academic prowess.

But a typical Chem or Bio major in pre health science usually take following classes 2nd semester of freshman year in college. At least I did.

G-ChemII
Bio-II
PhysicsII
CalculusII
and 1 liberal Art..

And went to every home football games.

Do they all (except history, of course) have a 3 hour lab attached to the course? I found that having a lot of labs really seemed to increase the difficulty of the semester. Not that the labs themselves were hard, but just that they took up so much time in my schedule. If they don't all have labs, then you might be ok as long as you don't let yourself get behind studying!

yeah, all the classes have the 3 hours lab, that's what i was wondering, would that be too much having 4 science classes like that with the labs taking up most of my time in school? is anyone else in the same situation as me........

I already finished the calculus series. Im more of a math person so Calculus was very easy for me, for chem i had to work way harder for my A in Chem I, lab was a killer because I was new to all the lab equipments and techniques. Im totally new to Bio so I have no idea how's that going to work out. Biology I and Human Physiology together in the same semester, is that recommended?

If you have to ask, then it is too much for you. You need to scale back and take one science at a time. Join the 12 year plan.
 
If math is easy for u then physics wont be too bad... chem will be the same difficulty as the first one usually, bio is just lots of memorizing and so is physiology.... you should be okay. Its def. a good thing for adcoms to see that you have many hard classes at one time. I say try it out the 1st week - have a back up class and maybe switch out of physiology if it seems to hard. To me I would think physiology would take up the most time but at my school physiology is a higher level class than bio so i'm not sure its difficulty at your school. ramblings... i hope that was understandable.
