*Waiting a year/semester to build on his Calc/Chem base does not seem wise or necessary, but, hey, I’m new at this. I don’t think Calc II will be too bad for him since his AP teacher will give him a solid base. He knows his General Chemistry and the next logical step for his major would be Organic. Organic will be a kick in the shorts his freshman year, but, given his other courses he should be able to manage it. Waiting for a year before doing Organic might not be advisable. *

I don’t think he should wait a year to build on Chem or Cal. I think he should take Cal II in the fall. I don’t think it will be a problem to take OChem in the spring, but it’s obviously a personal decision.

Does he realize how demanding the first semester of CBH is?

Does he not need to take bio for ChemE?
