Planned Freshman Schedule, just need some advice

<p>I've planned out 17 credits for my 1st semester at Cal.
Here are my courses:
Chem 4A
Phys 8A
South Asian R5A
AsianAmericanStudies 128AC
Chem C96</p>

<p>I'm going into the College of Chemistry but would like to change to Integrative Biology after 1st semester.</p>

<p>Is this too much?</p>

<p>… If you are going to switch out of CoC. DO NOT TAKE Chem 4a!</p>

<p>That’s pretty brutal. Not sure if you <em>can</em> avoid Chem 4A… At least you can hold off on “AsianAmericanStudies 128AC”, just don’t take it now.</p>

<p>South Asian R5A is for my Reading & Composition requirement
AsAmStudies 128AC is for my American Cultures requirement</p>

<p>How hard is Chem 4A really? I really like Chemistry and got an A in my AP Chem class (hardest class at school) in 10th grade without any prior experience in Chem.</p>

<p>I wanted to take Chem 1A but I dont think they let me switch colleges at CalSo</p>

<p>“How hard is Chem 4A really? I really like Chemistry and got an A in my AP Chem class”</p>

<p>So did everyone else in 4A, more the less.</p>

<p>I am not sure how difficult it is but it definitely requires a lot of time and attention.</p>

<p>there’s no point in taking chem 4a if ur not gonna be in CoC.</p>

<p>^ i understand, but will they let me take Chem 1A instead at CalSo?</p>

<p>yea they’ll tell you to sign up for chem 4a. but just sign up for 1a. tell them ur switching out too.</p>
