<p>I'm taking biology w/ lab, chemistry w/ lab, english, psychology, and some other honors program classes, altogether 16 credits in the fall semster of my freshman year. I know it isn't the end of the world, but I'm probably going to end up with a B in english 101 bc the teacher is such a hard grader. I think I might be able to get As in all my other classes</p>
<p>So my question is, is it better to get a B in english or a B in a science class such as bio or chemistry?</p>
<p>Given the choice I’d take a B in English – as a matter of fact I did twice in both semesters of Freshman English Comp (101/102 or whatever the course numbers were) somewhere back when Gerald Ford was President. I think I had an 88.5 one semester and 89.2 the other and it ticked me off – I still hate grammar. I did even things out with A’s in both semesters of Literature. The only B I made in about 80 hours of science courses was a 1 hour P-Chem lab section.</p>
