Electives
Hi, I will be entering life sci I next year and I have a question about electives. Do your electives HAVE to be outside your major? I am asking because I want to take lots of science and math courses so I have the most options for level II programs and was going to give up my two electives to take some. Any help would be appreciated.

Nope, they can be inside your major if you want. I know some people who took math and science courses with their two electives, so you should be just fine.

you can take any course as an elective for which you meet the pre-reqs for (or can obtain permission). It says that on the course calendar. No need to call the university ...
