How Difficult/Time-Consuming Does This Sound...
Ok I'm trying to work out my schedule and it's being horribly difficult on me, and options keep flying through my head -.- anyways, right now I'm thinking about a 4:6 course load for my semesters and I'm curious as to how difficult and time-consuming this second semester sounds. Even if you just point out a course that has either of those characteristics that'd be great, any help is appreciated. So I have...

Bio 2A03
Bio 2B03
Bio 2C03
Physics 1B03
Psych 1XX3
Lifesci 2H03

How's it sound?
Also any advice on 2H03 vs. 1XX3 would be appreciated, since the decision between those 2 are the reasons I'm starting to look at a 6 course semester :s. Thanks!

If this is your second semester, why not move physics to first semester? Or Bio 2B03? 2C03 is really easy, but you could move that one as well. All of them are offered in both terms.

If you live near Hamilton, you could try taking Psych 1XX3 this summer. It starts on June 18th.

Edit: As for time consuming, the labs for Bio 2A03 are killer. The course material isn't very difficult; it's just that the labs take a long time to write and are marked very hard.

Basically the only reason for not doing that is because I have orgo first semester and chem is already not one of my strong suits.. However I never even thought of this lol.

Orgo isn't nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be. It's more the fear of it that does people in, rather than the material itself.

If you're worried about having the time for it, then maybe move genetics to first term? It won't add much to your workload.

GrapeSalad says thanks to nerual for this post.
