<p>Can a current premed do like..an overview of the program at Penn? I'm considering doing it next year and I want to know what to expect. I'm sure there's been a post about this before, but I had trouble finding one through a search. Generally, what are the classes like? Is it difficult to do a completely unrelated major? How is the advising? Obviously premeds are competitive, but how do they compare to other schools? Is it possible to have a social life? Do you recommend skipping classes with AP credit or retaking them? Ok, sorry that's a lot of questions! But it would be really helpful. Thanks :)</p>
<p>take hand
slam in door</p>
<p>repeat as desired</p>
<p>(these are not wise questions to ask during finals time, I'll give you a better answer after wednesday)</p>
<p>Thank youuuu!</p>
<p>Bump because finals are over!</p>
<p>After the finals people have to (maybe get drunk before) pack and go home. That's also another level of stress. haha. </p>

<p>what are classes like? ask about specific classes pls.</p>
<p>I know a religious studies major who was a premed. </p>
<p>I also know used-to-be premeds because they don't want to be doctors anymore.</p>
<p>The fact is, a significant number of penn students are premeds (some giveup in the meanwhile). I don't like that fact, but you should prob find out what you are good at by the end of your senior year.</p>
