<p>I am currently enrolled in chem3bl, but waitlisted for chem3b lecture and it doesn't look very likely that I'll get in this semester. I was wondering how much of the chem3b lecture material is used in lab? If I don't get dropped from 3bl, would I be ok just taking it without lecture first?</p>
<p>you will get dropped from 3BL if you don’t get into 3B. What is your waitlist position?</p>
<p>I’m #101 right now. I’m not holding out much hope that I’ll get in. I’m just wondering if in the event that they don’t check pre-reqs or something, if keeping just 3bl would be a possibility or whether it would be too difficult without having had lecture.</p>
<p>Every semester there are a chunk of people on 3BL waitlists who think they will never get into the class (but don’t remove themselves from the wl) and end up getting into the class by the second week.</p>
<p>Chem 3BL is one of the few classes in Berkeley that actually checks for prereqs and coreqs.</p>
