Question for fellow biology majors?

Question

I'm a 3rd year biology major also doing pre-med, so I plan on registering for the MCATs at the end of the yr. So far I have the following classes:

Organic Chemistry (and lab)

General Microbiology (and lab)

General Physics (and lab)

Genetics

Intro to Creative Writing (to fulfill a university core curriculum requirement)

Totaling to 18 credit hours. I have bills to pay so I also have a job up at school and usually pull about 15-16 hr/week. I am just kind of worried it will all be a little too much and need to drop a class. Which one do you think I should drop and maybe hold off til summer or next year?

Answer 1

Three labs is a LOT, especially when you also have to work.  I would cut back and make up some other time.  You DON'T want to jeopardize your GPA by over-doing it.  Physics is the one I would consider dropping since the other two are more relevant.
