<p>Also, it helps if you actually enjoy the subject that you’re studying. If you like learning about biology or chemistry or genetics or whatever, then it’s probably going to be easier for you than if you’re only doing the major for med school. I know people tend to say such-and-such North campus majors are way easier than South campus, but I’ve known plenty of people who struggled in humanities GE’s because they either aren’t as good at the subject, or because they feel they can blow it off because it’s supposed to be easy and it comes back to bite them in the rear. </p>
<p>Bruinwalk/word of mouth is also your friend when it comes to picking your professors for lower divisions. Always check to see if the professor has a good reputation, whether it be because they let you drop a low score, they curve nicely, they’re accessible, etc whatever you think would cater to your learning style the best.</p>
