tulane14:

You’ll start to see that sadly there isn’t much room for exploration with a typical pre-med schedule. Almost all my courses have been in the sciences. I can relate to you because while I’m pretty set on a neuroscience/psychology/biology major, I’m still searching for something else to enrich my academic experience.

I couldn’t agree with you more, tulane14. It is a shame that, from what I read on here anyway, it is considered a stigma to take 5 years to graduate as far as med schools are concerned. Sure, it might be too expensive for a lot of people anyway, but for those that can afford it it just makes sense to take this unique time in your life to enrich your life through being exposed to Chaucer and/or Brazilian anthropology and/or the history of the Ottoman Empire. Seems to me it would make a lot of people better doctors too. Tulane must agree with this in principle since they have the Creative Scholars program.

headingsouth - I guess they programmed the computer to have the class go all the way to 3:00. I would think you could get it OK’d. E-mail your advisor.
