<p>Disaster?? Where? OH you mean the 3.7UW?? LOL THAT IS A DISASTER!! I THOUGHT MY 2.x FRESHMAN YEAR WAS BAD!!</p>

<p>-_- An unweighted A- average won't hurt you that bad, especially freshman year. (I hate when topics don't fit the post)
Your freshman year can be called "Above-average" at the worst.</p>

<p>as i see u now, ur fairly competitive.</p>

<p>mind if i give some advice? if u want to do both med and music, may i suggest either go pre-med and music major or pre-med with some major and a music minor?</p>

<p>i had the same dilemma myself, but i eventually came to this conclusion: they will let the doctor play the piano, but they won't let the pianist do surgery.</p>

<p>Haha what do you do in basketball class? Is it like gym or basketball history and theory?</p>

6

<p>oh it's just PE, just more specific as to what you do in that class</p>

<p>College<em>Here</em>I_Come: i was just thinking about doing med as a major and music as a minor. i agree that would be a good idea</p>
