First semester General ED? Science major

Student Lounge College Life
1

<p>My registration date is this upcoming Monday and I'm not sure exactly what general ed classes I'm supposed to take or what classes related to my major. Or even how many of the two. I know the average freshman takes 13-15 units their first semester. I am a biology major probably switching to chemistry. Career goal: pharmacist. Please let me know what General ed I am supposed to fulfill during my first semester and what room I have for classes related to my major. Thank you! </p>

<p>In order to move on after college I read that I must take one year of each of the following
-general chemistry
-biology
-organic chemistry
-physics
-microbiology
-cell and molecular biology
-calculus </p>

<p>I’d check with a few Pharmacy programs first to see how many years of requirements they require .</p>

<p>That said, you have some prerequisite things going on here that are easy enough - You can’t usually take Organic Chem until you’ve had General Chem. Can’t take Micro until you’ve had General Biology at most schools and Calculus will help with Physics so it probably would be good to get beforehand.
English is almost always a requirement as well.</p>

<p>Good luck. </p>
