<p>Hey i recently got into the premed program at holy cross, however i have no idea how. i was a straight B student and took no AP or honors classes in any sciences. So when i applied i thought holy cross was a shot in the dark. So far i have only heard that the premed program is incredibly hard. I already dunno if ill be able to handle it. If there are any Premed students at Holy Cross or at a school similar to Holy Cross and is in premed that can tell me about the course load could you help me out here. I am interested in premed but i also wanna enjoy my time in college (meaning i dont wanna be stuck in my room working all the time). All i wanna hear is how hard it is and whether i will still have a fun time.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>anyone wanna help me out…</p>
<p>It is a lot of work and requires a lot of dedication and single-mindedness but that will be true for any premed program at any top college. If you want to get into medical school, you need to be ready to work hard.</p>
<p>Thanks for the comment, i understand that any premed program will be difficult. i was just wondering if this program means that i won’t have a social life outside of class.</p>
<p>One of Holy Cross’ greatest quarterbacks back in the late 1980s, Jeff Wiley, is now a surgeon. You definitely will have time for a social life. That should not be an issue at all.

<p>hahaha thanks, that helps</p>
<p>There is another thread about the HC pre-med program, but 1980collegegrad is right. You certainly will be able to have a social life. I am in the pre-med program right now, and have more than enough time to socialize/relax. You only take 4 classes per semester, which definitely reduces stress. It’s great here–you should go for it!</p>
<p>Wow, thats exactly what I wanted to hear. Thanks a lot.</p>
