Depends on the school imo

My undergrad didn't even allow us to take more than 18 credits a semester iirc



Usually anything over 18 you have to get permission from your academic counselor.

LOL yeah same. 21 credit hours I would probably just say fuck it and kill myself. My brain would fry itself

I took organic 2, physics, genetics, and precalc this semester. Had to medically withdraw though.

There's always next semester. You seem pretty smart though, so good luck.

I was only doing algebra based physics. My masters is fine with calc based or algebra based, so I figured why not take the easier one to focus more on my undergrad degree of bio.

Yup 12 here as well.
thanks m9.
I don't really see a problem with actually being able to get all As without too much problem. I see a problem with actually having a enough free time for my own liking :P



Sheet, I guess it's decided then, gotta do it :P


Honestly, take your time, do what you need to do to learn everything you need to learn. For med school, just stay above a 3.5 GPA and you'll be competitive as long as you do well on your MCAT. IMO stress studying for your MCAT more than your classes, I mean obviously a large chunk of it will overlap without a doubt, but emphasize the MCAT more as that's what medical schools look at more.

taking 4 science courses at a time = suicide.

I've taken 4, it's tough, but it's not suicide. 5 is a different story though, I wouldn't advocate it lol.

Anything more than 1 science class is suicide..when you start mixing letters with numbers my brain shuts off. I can't even imagine the amount of stress is be under
