<p>You might look into taking honors calc instead of the regular section. These will give you smaller class sizes, and no discussion groups (eg you’d be with the same lecturer for four times a weeks). If you’re on top of your stuff, it should be just as easy (if not easier) than 115. I took math 185 (a solid A) as well as the chem’s you mentioned above. I have no love for chem (never have, really) and got in the B+/A- range in each.</p>
<p>I’m thinking of applying for EGL next term. I’m happy to update you on my progress/the process once I go through with it. Another idea if you’re interested is to set up an appointment with either an EGL mentor or going to talk with one of the advisers in the international office once you get to Michigan.</p>
<p>Good luck!
