<p>ok im entering my last two semesters at my local cc and plan on transferring to a 4 year uni, either fsu,usf,or uf. im taking bio I and II these next two semesters which leaves physics,organic chem, and chem, and some upper level biology classes to fit in along with my major which is going to be psychology. i was wondering if anybody had any advice on how to fit in these science classes as a psychology major or a minor that included these classes, or even suggest another major (that doesnt have organic,chem,physics, or chem as a prereq) that could make this easier because im officially stumped lol</p>
<p>Have you checked the required courses for a psych major at those three schools? If so, can you make a reasonable schedule that includes the premed courses you’ve listed plus sociology and biochem (you will have by definition taken psych)? </p>
<p>If need be, could you take extra time to finish your degree and premed reqs?</p>
<p>As far as other majors, biology is usually the one that includes the most premed courses within the major requirements.</p>
<p>I know how you’re feeling, lol. I’m going for a double major in applied math and psychology on top of trying to get my pre-med reqs in and finishing my GERs. This may sound tedious, but search for the required courses for the psych major and type them up in Excel. Then type in all the classes you need to take for the pre-med reqs. Then make a separate column for each semester and work on a schedule from there, taking into account how many hours you’ll be taking and the difficulty of each class compared to each other. Balance is key so that you also have time to maybe work or volunteer or get some research experience, or to maybe sleep and eat, lol. </p>
<p>If it’s financially possible, I would probably try to take maybe one or two courses over a summer. That might help with trying to fit it all in. </p>
<p>As entomom said above, you could maybe take extra time to finish your degree. </p>
<p>Most science majors will probably have organic, chem, or physics as prereq. Out of the many reasons most premeds are some sort of science major is because it’s relatively convenient in terms of getting all the reqs taken care of as well as possible upper level classes.</p>
