<p>@AceAites Honestly at this point there’s no need for you to worry about planning your schedule in great detail. You honestly don’t have a good grasp of what these classes consist of at this point, so it’s not a good idea to plan your schedule quarter-for-quarter. I strongly recommend that you bond with an upperclassman and ask him/her to serve you as a mentor. It makes life a lot easier! I can always offer advice if you need it, but keep in mind that I haven’t taken all of the classes that you may be considering.</p>
<p>That being said, I can tell you that BILD classes will not factor into your GPA if you passed out of them through AP’s. This goes for ANY classes you pass out of due to AP’s.</p>
<p>If you got a 4 I believe you have to take 1 BILD class instead of 3. BILD 2 is supposedly the easiest.</p>
<p>Mammalian is known to be pretty hard and time-consuming. A huge factor, though, is the teacher. Genetics is the first real upper-div biology course most students take. Don’t be lazy, ask for help if you need it and you’ll be fine.</p>
<p>Also, all science classes you’re going to take are going to be filled with pre-meds. There’s no avoiding it. However, if you want it more than everyone else you’ll get where you want to be.</p>
