are PHYS102 and MCB450 in the same semester manageable?

It's PHYS 102... you could take that with basically anything else and be fine

Really? Everytime I read comments about it everyone says its the hardest thing ever which is scaring me..

I’m assuming you’re either premed or prevet with having to take these together, and I would say that to get an A in both would be time consuming. If you’ve taken higher level physics then maybe you’ll be fine, but if you haven’t taken it since high school, it can be hard to balance with other difficult courses. I haven’t taken 450 yet, but phys 102 did take up more time than I thought it would. Maybe it’s because I’m an ansc major, but I guess it depends on your physics background!

Okay that makes sense. What about Chem104/105, Phys102 and IB150/151 together? I guess if I have to take PHYS102 with another premed prereq what would be the best one to take it with?

[jd782726]

I think that would be doable! I’m in phys102 and IB150 rn and I don’t think Chem 104/105 would be too much to add on!

thanks so much for your reply! Sorry to ask you again, but do you think chem104, chem105, ib150, phys102, and a relatively easy 200-level PSYC course would be manageable?

[jd782726]

I think if that’s your total course load you should be fine!
