I know you didn’t ask this, but please don’t lock yourself into premed this early. Med school admissions are extremely competitive, and college isn’t any easier than high school to get good grades in.

That aside, yeah, taking it easy your first term is a good idea. You’ll spend a lot of time adjusting to college life, and some people just can’t keep their grades up while they do that.
