@kmolm: hmm i’m not so sure if taking chem and bio together is such a great idea. i mean, what is the rush? why not take bio freshman year, then chem, then orgo, then physics, which is the norm?

you seem intelligent and very capable, but both classes are pre-med weed-out classes and require lots of time and commitment. these are the courses that are the most likely to put honors students on academic probation. a lot of my friends are pre-med, and it seems like you either do really well in these classes (like curve-breaking well) or you don’t, and the majority of people don’t or at least that’s what it seems like to me. but you seem like a science-oriented kind of person so you’ll probably do fine.

also, what other kind of courses are you taking?
