<p>If one applies after graduation, one has no choice but to take a gap year due to the full year it takes for the application cycle. It’s implicit in the advice I gave to the OP.</p>

<p>Normal work load would OChem w/lab, 2 upper level psych courses plus 1 additional 4 credit course (math, stats, upper level GE elective)</p>
<p>Normal workload would be 2 upper level psych courses, Ochem w/lab, and another science (physics, bio} w/ or w/o lab</p>
<p>Normal workload would be 2 upper level psych courses, Ochem w/lab, and 4 credits independent lab research</p>

<p>Also, it’s not critical to take all of your pre-reqs at a 4 year college. Calc 1 & stats at a CC is fine. Gen chem at a CC is fine (but save OChem for your 4 year). Since you may not be taking any upper level bio classes as a psych major–save bio for your 4 year college. </p>
<p>Physics at the CC may or may not be OK. If your CC has articulation agreement with your state U, you may be required to take physics at the CC in order to complete your transfer. If that’s the case, take physics at CC. If your school’s articulation agreement doesn’t stipulate, save physics for the 4 year unless it puts you in a bind in terms of graduating on time.</p>
