Is this a good first year schedule?

Don’t worry, you’re not at a disadvantage at all! A lot of pre meds jump right into those math and science classes (I was one of them) and hurt their GPAs the first semester of college. Its better to know that you need that class and have the right background knowledge than to assume you’re ready and just jump in without consulting an academic advisor. If anything, be glad that you know you will have the background knowledge to succeed in your upper level courses.

I would ask your advisor about spanish. You definitely don’t want to take trig, chem and bio all at the same time. Psychology won’t exactly be a piece of cake either because its a gen ed and has a lot of writing requirements. See what your advisor says. If anything you can postpone bio I for another semester or take it over the summer.
