<p>The only disadvantage of taking the K/L/M series instead of the C/D sequence is that it takes 3 semesters instead of 2. From the university’s perspective, the 2 sequences are exactly the same. That being said, the 3 semester sequence will generally take the calculus sequence at a slower pace and therefore for some people, easier. On the other hand, If you want to use that extra semester to take something else, the two semester sequence might be a better option. </p>
<p>Here is a link to premed requirements last updated May 2007 which should be still good i think:</p>
<p>the 3 semester sequence is not necessarily easier, it all depends on your professor. some professors see the extra time as a way to fit more or harder material into the class. i know someone who just failed m because of this.</p>
<p>Not all majors require both C and D or K, L, and M.
Example - several of the B.S. Biology options only require K and L or only C. Med school doesn’t require M or D. If you have the option, take K and L. M is a biotch class.</p>
<p>Bio is definitely 311C and D (Dr. Moon is an awesome teacher to take for those), the lab is a pain to get in to and I think is 206L now (the sequence numbering has changed around some in the past few years). Check with your adviser.</p>
<p>Take Chem 301 and 302 with either the 204 or 317 (for chem/biochem majors) lab, plus 310M, 310N, and 210C for organic.</p>
<p>You’ll have to take a physics sequence as well but which one is dependent upon your major. If it requires calculus based physics, take 317K/L with the 117M/N lab. For algebra based tracks check with your adviser because there’s a bunch of them.</p>
<p>i know quite a few people who had ab and bc coming into UT. So they had credit for K and L or just C. I took the C/D line instead of the KLM, and I got lucky with my teacher for D. I got an easy A in D while other people who are just as smart(in most cases smarter) as me got b’s and c’s in M. Its ALL about the teachers.</p>
