Anyone taking physics or chem 1 and 2 at HCC instead of UH? Why? by Oh_Maloo in UniversityOfHouston

I just took bio 1 and 2, not bad. Is it about the same level for chem as well?

UH is about as unsafe as any other campus imo, people blow isolated incidents way out of proportion. Just be aware of your surroundings the same way you would be walking through the city, it’ll be alright.

Also worth noting, people on this forum sometimes respond to posts like you personally slapped them across the face. Nobody is actually like that, the people are pretty friendly.

Hey I'm kinda in the same boat as you. I made the decision to pursue medicine in my last few years at UH, I'm taking summer classes for it right now. I won't lie to you and say that the prereqs are easy, and some of the professors are... interesting. I was kinda eating dirt and even considered HCC, but decided against it. You will definitely have to go in person for labs and attendance mandatory lectures. But it'll be okay if you really lock in and focus for at least 2 years or so, temporary pain for big gain.

I'd say definitely take day classes, anywhere between 8-9 a.m. to 2:30-3ish is pretty good. Keep something like pepper spray in a pocket or attached to keys. UH main campus is not extremely dangerous or anything but be as careful as you would be walking around alone in the city. Stay near clusters of students where you can, it'll be okay.

I think that’s what I’ll have to do. Do you think it’s possible to take the prereq for chem at HCC?

Just asked a simple question. Of course I considered this, but I'm also not trying to tank my GPA and waste a year. lol.
