Unfortunately, premed is not really compatible with being pushed out of your comfort zone any more than necessary. Your undergraduate years will be spent worrying about your grades according to the following scale:
[/QUOTE]
A = acceptable
B = bad
C = catastrophic
D = disastrous
F = forget about medical school
The risk of a grade lower than A will deter you from seeking academic challenges.
