Can someone help me with med school stuff?
I don’t know if finding the “easiest” first semester would be in his best interest. I would think that the better strategy would be to evenly distribute the hardest classes between now and the time that he has to take his MCATs for med school. He should definitely take chemistry in his first semester. Most colleges offer chem 1 in the fall semester, which is a pre-req for taking chem 2 in the spring semester. Taking general chemistry in freshman year is very important so that you can take organic chemistry (another med school and MCAT requirement) in sophomore year. I’d also say that getting calculus over with in freshman year would be beneficial. It’ll be easier to take the calc with chem and a couple “cake courses” such as music and psych 101 vs. taking it later when he has to take organic chem and upper level psych courses. Plus, depending on the actual courses, calc may be a prerequisite for physics, which he should take in either 2nd or 3rd year. I’d save African history as one of
