I am trying to see what people think a good class load will look like taking upper division courses.. feel free to talk about details and your class loads.

What kind of load do you think dental schools are looking for if you are a predental student?

I am taking 12-14 units a semester.. Not sure if thats enough.. about 2-3 science courses..

What about u?

LETS CALL IT A SEMSETER UNIT and we could convert to quarter units.. Thanks iwannabeadentist

semester units X 1.5 = quarter units

Holy S*** that means a 12 semester unit is about 18 quarter units:-????

are these quarter units or semester units? big difference! 16 quarter units a quarter is about average whereas 16 semester unit may be a lot

Where do you go to school? My school is on the quarter system and 12 quarter units is about the same load as 12 semester units, the semesters are just longer, and we need 180 units to graduate. So the quarter units and semester units are about equivalent as far as work you need to do at one time.

I put 13-14 because that's what I took most of my college career, but my last year was 11-12.

I don't exactly know the quarter to semester units conversion. But I've been taking around 19-20 per quarter w/ at least 3 science classes.

I think this is the conversion:
a 4 quarter unit class can be used to clear a 3 semester unit requirement

or

semester units X 1.5 = quarter units
