<p>How difficult is it to navigate through the Open Curriculum without losing focus, and still end up where you want to be?</p>
<p>it depends on the kind of person you are. some people are very focussed from the get-go and use the open curriculum to triple major. others (like me) get lossed several times over, but learn valuable lessons along the way and end up in a great place nonetheless. there are also many resources and advisors to help you out</p>
<p>i chose neuroscience as my concentration as late as possible after trying out everything from biomedical ethics to international relations. i still ended up doing research with a nobel laureate and publishing my senior thesis in a national scientific journal.</p>
<p>dcircle, did you entered Brown as a PLME student? if so, how does/did the OC affect the classes you took as a premed student? How does Brown’s grading policy influence students’ motivation, interests, etc., and also how do grad schools evaluate Brown students’ grades?</p>
