Freshman year schedule (college)

Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Here is the schedule I have planned for my first year at my state flagship:
Semester 1-
General Chemistry 1 w/ Lab
Physics for Scientists and Engineers 1 w/ Lab
Beginning Russian 1</p>

<p>Semester 2-
General Chemistry 2 w/Lab
Physics for Scientists and Engineers 2 w/ Lab
Beginning Russian 2</p>

<p>I don't know yet what I want to major in, but I do know that I want to attend medical school and my ultimate goal is to become a plastic surgeon. I have already taken AP Chemistry and AP Physics C: Mechanics my junior year or high school, and could skip some classes I stated above, but I don't think that it such a good idea. So that is my tentative schedule. I really don't have much of a clue what I want to major in. I'm very interested in Russian language and culture, and that is something I would consider majoring in, but would it look good in medical school admissions to major in a foreign language? Other options are physics or math. I am currently taking Calculus 3 as a senior in high school, so I would be somewhat ahead of the pack if I chose to do this.
That all being said, is my schedule alright? It'll be 14 credit hours each semester. I will have about 60 upon entrance due to AP and college courses.</p>

<p>You might want to post this somewhere other than HS life. Perhaps college life?</p>

<p>These are questions to ask your adviser. You can finalize your schedule once you meet with them.</p>

<p>Take note of this so you can remember it later.</p>

<p>What are your graduation requirements? Does your college have a core curriculum?</p>

<p>If I were in your place I’d probably take another class, especially since you’ve already taken what you’re taking. That being said, a light freshman year may be good for getting acclimated to college life and developing a strong social network.</p>
