Data10:

I agree. My college split up the labs as separate courses, which helped avoid scheduling too high a workload. For example bio and bio lab were separate 5-credit classes. A typical quarter schedule was ~15 credits, so during the quarters where pre-med students took bio + lab, many would take only one additional course.



That seems to be an unusually large amount of credit for introductory biology with lab. Were both the course and lab significantly more in-depth than the introductory biology with lab courses at other schools which typically give 4 or 5 units total (whether the lab is part of the course, or the course is split into lecture/discussion and lab courses) for the quarter or semester.
