Yes, I would say so. “Technically” they are equivalent, but I didn’t take Chem 31X so I can’t speak for the material in class.

I am not really trying to change the courses you are planning to take. I’m only trying to offer advice based on my experiences and what I’ve heard from others. My suggestion is just to take it light initially and then gradually build until you’ve reached your comfort level. I’m actually kind of confused why the people you have talked have so many regrets. I am not sure if you have tried this yet, but I would suggest taking the time to create a four year plan, maybe even multiple four year plans. I have three four year plans. I know. I know, it sounds kind of crazy, but it helps me to visualize my steps and the path I am choosing before I take it. I think if you take the time out to plan correctly, you won’t feel the same amount of regret, because you know what you need to do in order to reach your goal. I think that is why I am ok with taking a light course load this year. I know what I need to do to reach my goal and I am comfortable with the pace I’ve chosen.
