Chem 14B/BL

<p>I know this question has been asked a few times before, but is it really all that bad to take the two (14B/BL) together? I've heard so many horror stories and warnings not to take these two classes together, but I just wanted to see if anyone had some further insight or any recommendations in general on how to handle Pang's class? Also, one BruinWalk review said that the "concepts" of BL were mostly Chem14A concepts - has anyone else found this to be true? </p>

<p>Thanks =)</p>

<p>it is DEFINATELY doable. well i haven't finished the quarter yet, but so far its been pretty good.</p>

<p>Thanks for your input!</p>

<p>i want to take bl next quarter but its all full</p>

<p>do you guys think at least someone will drop until next quarter starts?</p>

<p>:(</p>

<p>get onto the waitlist. if you arent on the waitlist, contact pang. In my lab alone, two people dropped.</p>

<p>thanks a lot. i'm sure people will eventually drop, but knowing when is the problem. when should i contact him? if i manage to get in during, lets say, the second week, will i miss a lot of material?</p>

<p>im about to shoot myself for not enrolling in the lab when i had the chance.</p>

<p>Well...people will probably start dropping on the second pass...but I'd say start checking regularly during the first week of class...also, if you can, you should attend class too so that you don't have to play catch-up if you do get in</p>

<p>are you on the waitlist? if you are, then go the lab section you are on the waitlist for. I think the first two labs do not require lab coat/goggles. You basically just participate as ifyou were enrolled until the drop deadline (14BL is impacted so this is like ~2 weeks into the quarter). If no one has dropped by then, you are kinda out of luck, unless there are other lab sections that have openings.</p>

<p>if you are not on the waitlist, contact pang asap and ask about what you should do. contrary to bruinwalk, pang is pretty nice (just really hard), so he wont completely ignore you. </p>

<p>anyways good luck getting in.</p>
