Oh you’ll be taking it this quarter!!! Cool cool. As far as it being more relevant for high school biology, yeah it probably is but BIPN 148 sounded like a REALLY interesting class. But maybe I wouldn’t like it. Who knows. That’s why I’m asking.

I made the list of biology classes I wanted to take by looking at the California State Science Standards for high school students and comparing them to the classes offered. I have gone through the standards multiple times and the classes I decided on are BICD 110, BIEB 102 and 150, BIMM 100, and BIPN 100, 102/148, 106. That’s just for reference. The labs I’m still trying to figure out.

As far as it being too hard… college is hard. Ha ha. I mean, I’ve taken 21 units the past two quarters (5 classes and a lab) and both of those quarters had ochem in them. GPA wise, two of my best quarters. My GPA has really been skewed strangely though by my study habits so that doesn’t mean that much. Plus I’ll be an RA this year!!! Yeah I know, I won’t have a life.

Here’s what I’m looking at for this quarter.

PHIL 27 (Warren requirement)
HISC 111 - The Atomic Bomb and The Atomic Age (for a GE)
PSYC 104 - Intro to Social Psychology (for my minor)
CHEM 7L (Bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh)

What I might do is switch PSYC 104 and CHEM 7L for BIPN 102 and BIBC 102 or some other combination of these 4 classes. As you can see, either way it’s going to be tough. At this point I just want to figure out the biology class that I really want to take. It’s not like it’ll be life changing either way, but I don’t want to take a class that I didn’t really want to take and then miss out on another one. You know what I mean. Since I have two minors I just really have meticulously planned everything out so I can get every class I need and want but I’m just trying to figure out which bio class I want so I can see if any changes needed to be made to this quarter’s schedule to be as flexible in the future as possible. Ok, I’ll stop bugging you now. :)
