So, Im a Life Sci student and I recently picked my courses for first year. Here's what I have:

Term 1: Bio, Chem, Physics, Psych, and Kin.
Term 2: Bio, Chem, Math, Psych, and Kin.

a) Am I royally screwed?

b) Is Kin. a reasonably easy elective or not? Bcoz some of the other ones i wanted aren't working out but here are the ones i was considering so can someone from 2nd year please tell me if any of these would be better instead of Kin.? :

LINGUIST 1T03
RELIG ST 1B06
STATS 1L03 (I haven't taken Data Management in gr. 12 and I'm okayish at math)
CMST 1A03


Help? Please and thank you.

kin isnt bad. and youre not screwed. if youre by chance taking math 1ls3 and/or physics 1l03 then youre even better off since they are relatively easy

Hey, I took the same exact courses as you during first year (assuming that you took Math 1LS3 and Physics 1L03) and it was not bad at all, anyways, both kin were easy and interesting courses. The pre-labs were very easy as you got a week to complete it online and the labs themselves were interesting as you got to look at different wet specimens. You just had to listen to TAs explain the anatomy of these specimens and take notes in your lab book. The weekly quizzes were easy (provided that you study at least 2-3 days in advance) to score 90% or above (quizzes are out of 15 btw), and the format of the quizzes are mainly multiple choice with some labelling and fill in the blank questions. The exam for both courses was not too bad as well just study well in advanced for it. Lastly, make sure the label the lab images when they are posted on Avenue and don't leave it till the end. Personally, the Kin courses were my favourite courses during first year and my highest marks as well.

I took these exact courses except with physics (1b03) and math (1ls3) switched. it was fine.

Oh okay..phew! Thaaaanks guys! Feel a lot better now about my choices!
