<p>I second cherryapple. You need to make sure you really love biology and have the willpower to get that kind of a major done. It’s hard, and will be impossible if you don’t get some good study habits down. </p>
<p>Best thing I ever learned in college: don’t come to class simply ready to learn the information. Look over your reading and come with an idea of what you’re learning that day. And really learn it, not memorize it, by the next class. Helped me so much with taxonomy last semester. Especially when the professor would yell out random organisms and I could instantly yell back their classification.</p>
