@ironweasal I’m a bio major. It’s going fine. I’m honestly pretty relaxed, cause of all of the life control that I get from being in college. Biology in college is basically AP Biology. Chemistry is basically AP Chemistry. All of the stuff that you learned in high school helps. All you have to do is be in the upper 60% of the class and you’re fine. I have heard that Biochemistry and Organic Chemistry are hard. The test averages are about 50% in all of the classes, but that means nothing. It’s all about the curve. A 70% is an A+. You only need a C average to declare Biology. GPA doesn’t matter. Only internships and research that you get in college will get you a job. If you still can’t deal with biology, switch to anything else. You’re not actually declared until the end of sophomore year. Don’t be terrified unless you’re an EECS major.
Can you be more specific about what you are terrified of?
