<p>Hey CC,</p>
<p>I am a freshman and a premed. I was inititally thinking about majoring in MCB, which is why I enrolled in math 1a, but now, I do not think I am doing very well in the class. I haven't taken calculus before. I might end up with a B- or a C+! So, I was thinking, do you guys know if I can take Math 16B after 1A? I do not care if I get less units, what worries me is, will medical schools accept the change? Have any of you been through this before?</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>i know u CAN take it. but idk anything else.</p>
<p>I’m not pre-med, so I can’t remark on that.</p>
<p>But if they do accept that, do it. I strugged in Math 1A, took Math 16B, and it was a cakewalk.</p>
<p>Thanks clueless2400 and RaNe!</p>
<p>I have two questions for you RaNe,</p>
<p>Did you take Math 1a fall semsester for a letter grade and then math 16b second semsester? Also, had you taken calculus before? I think that now I am better off because I know about derivatives, limits, and all of that so maybe it will help in math 16B.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Yes to both questions.</p>
<p>I got a C in Math 1A and an A in Math 16B. Apart from having the first semester struggles, I never got the hang of proofs. Math 16B is straightforward, and if you do your work and stay on top of it, you’ll do well.</p>
<p>Thank you very much for this value info RaNe!
I appreciate it!</p>
<p>No prob! 
Hope that takes some burden off your back.</p>
<p>I wish all classes were like that.</p>
