Hello SDN,
I just have a silly question.
I'm on my 3rd year of postbac (including spring 2013, it will be 3 consecutive terms doing second bachelors, graduating by summer2013)
I attend to a CSU, and due to budget cut and the classes that I have taken, there are not that many upper div bio classes that I can take, so I filled it up with lower div courses that are prereq at some schools and one bs class.

Tentative Spring classes are as follow:
Biol Imaging with lab (2/2 )
Issue with Regen Medicine (3)
Intro to stats (5)
Intro to psych (3) -online
Physics of Music with lab (3/1) - online
Total of 19 units and part time job of 15 hours.

I'm not concerned about the courseload, but if any of you were in my shoes, would you drop any of the classes?. It's been three years of postbac and with my postbac GPA of 3.8, I think I did enough coursework to prove that I can handle upper div bio.. My advisor (who is an MD), told me to just drop Physics and relax. What you guys think?
Sorry for the long post and happy holidays.
 
I agree with advisor...You have a great DAT and a sturdy 3 year post-bacc, the physics of music kind of fluffy! Best of luck and Happy holidays to you too!

I agree. You've done well and proved yourself. I'm a post bacc working twice as much as you with only 12 hours a semester, and I have no worries about proving myself to the adcoms. Good luck!
