<p>@colorado_mom At my university, all engineering majors are required to take Biology 101 as a required GE. We don’t have a bioengineering major, so I guess it’s understandable. Plus I was excused from taking Physics 1 and 2. Plus nowadays I hear that most engineering students don’t take Physics 1 until after they complete Calculus 1 since Phy. 1 includes concepts from Cal. 1. Taking them at the same time, I’ve heard, would be tricky, especially if they are on different levels.</p>
