<p>Hi,</p>

<p>So um, I'm a BME at JHU...and yea, you gotta be kinda smart to get in, but I'm currently getting pwned. I got a 2.98 GPA last semester :(</p>

<p>So I have to take the following classes next semester...</p>

<p>Molecules and Cells - BME Requirement.
Organic Chemistry I - BME Requirement
Organic Chem Lab - REQ. </p>

<p>Circuits - I'm taking this as my focus area. I did fine in the last EE class I took (B+, so I have hope for this one)</p>

<p>and now my last class I'm at a standstill. </p>

<p>I need to start taking Humanities classes. I also need to take Data Structures. I AP'd out of Intro Java because of AP CS in High School. I have done no java at all since Junior year in High School. I will be a Soph. in college next semester. </p>

<p>So take Data Structures anyway? I can brush up this summer on Java! Or Should I take Intro Business, which I hear, if you do the readings and study, you'll get an A, which is good, because it'll help my GPA? Also its 4 credits, which helps too. Data Structures is 3. I can prolong either class to Junior Year. Given the workload what should I do? </p>

<p>Help!!</p>

<p>Thanks guys :)</p>

<p>p.s. I'm taking 2 classes [7 credits] over the summer, it'll bring my gpa up to ~3.2, so I'll be a bit more stable...lol</p>

<p>if you are at a dead tie, go to the class schedule for JHU and find out what professors are teaching your classes. Then go to [url=<a href=“http://www.ratemyprofessors.com%5DRateMyProfessors.com%5B/url”>http://www.ratemyprofessors.com]RateMyProfessors.com[/url</a>] and find out which professors are the easiest or better according to the students.</p>

<p>I agree. If you need both classes, just take the class that has the easier instructor since your just trying to get your gpa up right now</p>

<p>Good luck. Not a single one of my professors for the fall semester is on RateMyProfessor.</p>

<p>try pickaprof… it costs like 5 bucks for a month</p>

<p>Also check to see if your school has an in-house system. My undergrad school had a really good system that was widely used, so ratemyprofessor and such had few reviews. My grad school has a system run by the school and one by the students, but both of them seem to be mediocre at best due to low response rates.</p>

<p>I guess my community college is special. The only time my teacher isn’t on ratemyprofessor is when its like their first semester teaching.</p>
