<p>Are the honors seminars exclusively for students of the honors program or can students in the normal rutgers take the seminars as well? I got into the program but my brother did not so I was wondering if he could still take some of the courses (there is a seminar which really interest him). Thanks!</p>
<p>i’ve heard about non-honors kids taking honors gen chem (which is supposedly much easier, btw so i would recommend taking honors rather than gen chem which was specifically made to weed out the “weaker” pre-med majors) but i’m not too sure about this. you could ask your dean, but you’d most likely have to get a special permission number or something.</p>
<p>note: while the honors seminars SOUND interesting, trust me, they really are not. everyone always starts out with great attitude about them, but then they realize how ridiculously boring it is sitting in brett for 3 hours with a boring, stupid professor. but if he still wants to take an honors seminar, he probably has to get a special permission number from one of the honors deans. but i’m warning you, they aren’t that great/most say are a waste of 3 credits.</p>
<p>Yeah, I took honors gen chem and aced it easily. I am not in the honors program and I am a math major, I took it merely for my science SAS requirements. The honors program ****es me off because I was my high school val. and I had the overall SAT score required, but I missed the CR cutoff by 20 points…God knows I wasn’t going to waste time applying for it for sophomore year though or even applying to it at all.</p>
