Hey steffunny. True that everyone takes some general classes for the first two years. However, from what I’ve seen CAS students seem to have more freedom. One of my friends is in CAS and is supposedly taking Chem and Bio her freshman year in addition to her MAP requirements. LSP doesn’t get to do this, we’d only take the four general classes our freshman year. This may not work for me as I am premed and have a bunch of requirements to fulfill for that in addition to a major. Also, while CAS are practically finished with their requirements sophomore year, LSPers still have a lot more core classes to complete.

I’m talking to my college adviser about it, since there are girls from my school who have gone through LSP pre-med and kept in touch. She said it does seem like they get bogged down junior year, but I’m going to wait for definitive evidence of that before making a choice.
