Hi everyone,
I couldn't find anything about this in the search option but I was just wondering if anyone who's already taken (and passed) o-chem would recommend taking two full semesters of gen chem before taking it? Or is just one semester sufficient?
My major requires two semesters of gen chem anyway, so I have to take it, but for MCAT purposes I'm trying to make the most efficient set up of my time also in a way that I'm not going to be insanely overloaded.
So far my (kind of tenative) plans are:
(Molecular, cellular, developmental bio major)
Freshman Fall (completed)
Gen bio 1 w/ lab
Public Speaking
Spanish (pre-req for my university)
>13 credits
Freshman Spring
Statistics
Genetics
Gen Chem 1
either psych or another bio lower division elective
>14-17 credits (haven't decided the elective yet)
Freshman Summer
Molecular Cell Bio 1
Cell Bio Lab
O-Chem (Possibly? Or should I wait?)
>6-12 credits
