<p>My initial goal has since senior year of high school was to be a pre-med undergrad and then go to medical school. But throughout the year I have always been questioning whether or not being a doctor was the right path for me. Then my biology class, which is just horrible. First semester I made it out alive with a C, and this semester my exam scores so far is 80 and most likely 75. This class is the bane of my college life, I study 3 hours plus every single night and come out with such low scores. The only thing this course has taught me was how to manage my time.</p>
<p>Initially when I got accepted into TAMU, I was accepted as an Chemical Engineer. I changed my major before freshman year began and I have been regretting it since. I miss having a math class, I miss applying my knowledge in order to solve problems. I just cannot stand memorizing, it has always been my flaw.</p>
<p>Now I want to know if trying to change back into an engineering major. Most likely Electrical/Computer because I enjoy computers. The only thing that is intimidating me is physics and calculus. </p>
<p>I am pretty comfortable with my math skills, in high school I made As on both semesters for Calculus BC, as well as getting a 5 on the AP test. The only thing is I'm afraid some of the knowledge I gained from high school flew out of the window and I'm going to be screwed over when I enter an engineering math course. Also, I never took AP Physics in high school, but in my introductory physics class I did make low A's, high B's.</p>
<p>If you’re that intimidated by physics just take it over the summer at a community college. As far as calculus goes it isn’t so bad. If you do pursue that path I would recommend Amy Austin as a teacher and you should be able to do very well.</p>
<p>Definitely change your major to engineering. I have a BS in biology, and I can tell you, your job prospects are nill if you don’t get into med school. Unless you really want to go into the medical field and perhaps pursue a nursing degree, always a job in demand, I would follow my interest and go into computer science or engineering. Don’t let your high school performance in math and science deter you from where your interest lies. Concur with the above poster. Check rate my professor for calculus and physics teachers with good reviews for their teaching ability, not whether it’s an easy A. More important to understand the material that you’ll be building on as an engineering major than just getting an A without understanding it to boost your GPA.</p>
<p>At least with a 5 on AP Calculus BC, you won’t be “behind” in math if you switch back to engineering. If you took the physics course for scientists and engineers (rather than the “light” one for biology majors), you should be on track there.</p>
<p>However, you may be a semester behind on CS or other courses normally taken by engineering majors in freshman year.</p>
<p>Note that you can do pre-med from any major, although engineering other than chemical engineering or bioengineering will be cramped for schedule space. But it looks like you are not too interested in pre-med any more (and it would not be realistic with a C in biology).</p>
