Hello, I am a science major “gobluspirit”!

I am thinking of taking general physics II and calculus III this upcomming winter.

I am thinking of applying to medical school in future, therefore I was wondering if it is good idea to take honors physics II and calculus III.

But I heard it is extremely hard, I don’t want to mess up my GPA.

I want to hear more opinions from those who actually have taken it.

Plus, is B in honors better than A in regular?

(If it really doesnt matter, I am going for regular.)

Since from high school, this issue is always confusing…

If I take honors it’s kind of hard to maintain GPA, but it shows I challenged myself. But if I take regular I can keep my GPA good but doesnt show my eagerness of higher standard.

What are your suggestions Wolverines?
