Hi everyone! I was just curious about the difficulties of getting the classes that you want at NYU.
Are Principles of Biology I/II, Writing the Essay, and CHEM-UA 125/126 difficult classes to get as a freshman? Thank you!! 
Writing the essay is only open to freshmen, so you will get it either in the fall or the spring. Bio and chem are both massive classes, so you’ll get in, but you’ll likely have an undesirable lab/recitation time
Thanks for the help!!
