It's definitely a great stress reliever. I just wish I had more time to do even more of it. I'd love to be in an acapella group but they can be a pretty big time commitment.

All of the groups in my school have big time commitments/ inconvenient times ( like 8-10 and I commute).
Damn, I wish I had time for it. It is a big stress reliever/fun.
 
lmao gunned it with 20+ credits per semester the past three semesters with summer classes in between, now I have ecology, physiology, and genetics. Senior year is great.

Slept 4 hours a night on avg and hated my life last Fall but honestly I just want to get into medical school. My first three semesters are almost meaningless as far as graduation progress is concerned (change of major/life goals) so that explains the insanity. Had no interest in paying for another year of undergrad.
 
Senior double major (Bio + social science)
I took several semesters with very heavy course loads when I started school, so now I'm running out of classes to take, lol.

Research for class credit
Bioethics
Human sexuality education, which should be really cool since we're helping instruct an intro to human sexuality course 🙂

I am aiming to get three degrees too - Neuroscience major with Computer Science and Sociology minors, but minors are chill... Are you triple majoring? If so that's super cool. 🙂

That's an interesting combination! I have a feeling that when we unleash the full potential of computer science (AI, neural networks, along with bioinformatics and etc.), medicine will undergo a revolution. So it's awesome you'll have some knowledge on that!

And yes, at the end of it I'll be three degrees hotter😉
