Is this a reasonable freshman/sophmore schedule?

Congrats on getting into NCSU. =)


I highly encourage you not to take CH 221 without CH 201. My understanding is that the last topics of CH 201 are an intro to Organic Chemistry. It does you no good to try to “get to the real stuff” without the proper background.
It is my understanding you are not required to take any more foreign language for your degree, and waiting a year and a semester to take it, plus making it your 18th hour, seems a little extreme.
12 hours seems low for your first semester, and although it’s full-time enrollment for a community college, I’m not sure if it constitutes full-time enrollment at NCSU, which might affect your financial aid. You could at least work on your PE/Health requirement by taking a 13th or 14th hour. =/


Other than that, just make sure you’ve confirmed with an advisor which GEP requirements you’ve met–and good luck =)

Also, if you’re looking to get a PharmD, you can apply directly to many programs after obtaining the prerequisite courses, which can be done in 2 years.
