<p>I’m a sophomore at Wash U majoring in PNP (Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology interdisciplinary program). We don’t have a “pre-med major” so to speak but there are many majors, including my own, that complement the med school requirements very well. The general biology/chemistry classes are very challenging, and you can expect to dedicate a much higher proportion of your time to those classes compared to non-science/math classes you take. It pays off though, because the education is excellent, and I can’t imagine a school having a substantially more rigorous and academically challenging science program. </p>
<p>Also, regarding the resources available to you - there are tons of them. You take a mandatory recitation class alongside the gen chem lecture that reviews the week’s material, but you can also enroll in programs like PLTL (peer-led team learning) (this is offered for some other classes too). Cornerstone also offers free tutoring, there are multiple TAs with excellent notes you can borrow, and the professors themselves have office hours as well as open review sessions. Some freshmen residence halls also have undergraduate tutors but they’re still available to help you even if you don’t live there. Basically, your success is virtually entirely dependent upon how much you put into the class.</p>
<p>Hope this helped you out, and if you have any other questions feel free to ask.</p>
