<p>The why take chem 151? I imagine the BME/ECE dual major is already a chock full of hard classes, why add to that?</p>
<p>It honestly looks interesting and I’ll place out of the lower level. I’d prefer the harder class to relearning material, especially when I just took AP Chem this past year.</p>
<p>Would it be wiser to take physics 63 instead?</p>
<p>If you already have AP Chem credit, then you should be done with chemistry…no need to take another. Unless you have a burning desire to explore the wonderful world of organic chemistry with a bunch of cutthroat premeds…j/k
Premeds are awesome.</p>
<p>Phys 63…idk I’ve never taken it. Heard that there were some topics in it that premeds might be interested in. I retook 61 cause it would be easier and that was my easy A for second semester.</p>
<p>I don’t think so, SBR.</p>
<p>From the BME undergrad handbook:
</p>
<p>I don’t think taking chem 151 is wise if you’re not pre-med or a chem major because you will be taking with people who are, and people who are making that class their #1 priority. As an engineer, your hands will be pretty full. I think you should take 22 or 23 (although I am biased against 23). Are you considering any minors or certificates?</p>
<p>No, I’m not. I suppose I’ll try one of those others. Thanks for the advice.</p>
<p>My roommate took Chem 22 first semester and I remember him saying that it was really easy- however, since you’re BME… Chem 23 may be more useful.</p>
<p>d4r7h3v1l: I guess you will need to take a chemistry after all. If you are choosing between chem 22 and 23, then 22 might be a bit easier in terms of fewer hardcore orgo dropouts than 23. I took chem 23 my freshmen year and it didn’t feel any easier than 151.</p>
<p>do the cultural anthropology 49S seminars fill up too fast? How are they?</p>
