Suggested FSSP courses

<p>Anyone else joining the program? :)
Majoring Bio Sci</p>

<p>Courses considering:
Chem 1P: Prep Gen Chem
Math 1B: pre-calculus
Philos 7: Existentialism
Sociol 1: Intro Sociology</p>

<p>I’m guessing you dont have very good experience in chem and math (?). Just a heads up–If your doing a prep class to get ready for the intro class, it won’t count for a GE requirement. Unless you really need it I wouldn’t recommend it. </p>

<p>Go with sociology or philosophy, although there may be lots of reading. I would strongly reocmmend getting one of the 2 lower division writing courses out of the way.</p>

<p>Don’t take Chem 1P unless you need it to take Chem 1A, if you can place into Chem 1A it isn’t worth it.
Same thing with Pre-calc
Go for GEs. If your taking Hum Core then it covers the writing, so don’t take the intro writing. It also covers some other GEs too.</p>

<p>If you’re a bio major, are these the only classes that freshmen are allowed to take? And tatertots, what classes out of these approved courses would you suggest?</p>

<p>I am not sure if those are the only classes you can take but thats what it looks like. Anyways I would take anything that satisfies your GE requirements which can be found in the catalogue online. Personally I enjoyed Anthro 2A
If your going to take Hum Core it covers all your humanities/arts requirements I think(??)
So I think you left with social science and maybe some other random ones
Look at the course descriptions for each either in the catalogue or on the summer website and take w/e you think will be interesting(and satifies the GEs you need)</p>
