My original schedule was:
Organic chem 2 (4 credits)
Upper division Bio (3 credits)
Music (Elective) (3 credits)
Philosophy (Elective) (3 credits)
History (Elective) (3 credits)
TA fora business class. (3 credits, non graded)

The total for that is 19 credits including the TA course.
The problem though is that I had to drop the philosophy course due to time issues leaving me with only 16 credits. (3 being TA) 13 being actual credit classes. Out of those 13, 7 will be science related, 6 non science. Does this seam like a "light" courseload

People very often forget that the definition of a "full load" is 12 units. You'll be just fine, don't stress. I don't think I ever took more than 16 units a term in undergrad.

your fine dude.... Its WAYYY more important to earn high marks than to load up your semesters and "maybe" do just as well.
 
Yea im hoping for the 4.0 since I really need it. Calculated that I need a 3.82 to bring my gpa above a 3.0 but anything higher obviously would be better. Plus since I dropped a class it shouldnt be rediculous to do. Plus im good at ochem. It just felt like 13 credits of GPA counting courses would be a very low amoutn to me.
Last semester I took 17, semester before I took 18 and I dont think ive ever taken anything below 15 lol.

Thanks for the advice though
