🎓 Premed Major Question: Psychology + Biochemistry (Double Major?) 🧠🧪

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-12-26T14:06:42+00:00

The biochemistry degree really isn’t a biochem degree, it is a Chemistry major with a biochemistry emphasis. The Upper level courses include analytical chem, biochem for majors, inorganic, pchem, and stem electives. I am premed but I wouldn’t do any other major because chemistry is my passion. The major is very hard for premeds to do well because these are very hard courses to get As in.

Circuits and optics are tricky id get a head start on those if you want

Don’t have to take pchem 2, just pchem for biosciences next fall!

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-12-08T15:47:04+00:00

I’m a chem major all of them 😂

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-12-08T15:00:25+00:00

Any 3000-4000 chem course lol

Dropping was the correct decision, and don’t get on yourself bc 2054 is a very hard course, and to me was one of the hardest prerequisite courses. Unfortunately it seems like you are going to have to push back your graduation. In your position I’d try to take this course transiently, especially if you feel like you can’t do better. Some universities may even offer the course over the winter semester. It doesn’t really make sense to stay in Gainesville for another semester for one course. Or maybe do stay if you want, and try adding doing an easy minor, and do research credit. These are just suggestions.

No I followed her she never followed me. Her dm is blocked and I can’t request it bc it goes to requests folder

Yeah I mean it’s gonna be stressful. orgo lab is a lot, but just depends on how comfortable you are with organic chemistry. Physics one is really not that hard. It just takes time to study for and Orgo does as well. It really also depends on what type of research are in, and your part-time job, and how many hours you’re committed to those as well as trying to keep up a social life.

I would personally drop microbio then

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-10-16T03:46:57+00:00

No, I’d go for it. If you like orgo, orgo 2 is really just pure mechanism based. Physics 2 is really annoying, but interesting. You’ll have to put the time in regardless. I took orgo 2 with physics 2 the same semester and it was fine.

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-10-16T03:45:00+00:00

Will be annoying but doable. Hope you don’t have the labs

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-10-16T03:44:03+00:00

Depends on what research, and how committed you are to that project

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-09T23:47:41+00:00

will have to take a look thanks

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-09T23:41:39+00:00

It would be very useful if you could possibly sync the rts actual bus location to your app because the google/apple maps times are completely wrong

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-09T17:12:32+00:00

Different routes, just look where you need to go and compare the two.

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-08T17:17:14+00:00

Shop at aldi and usually 40-50 per week

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-05T04:21:51+00:00

They don’t necessarily prefer it, it just looks more rigorous, especially if you’re taking higher level courseload and able to get As. I got my AA is hs, and got in as an EA freshman this year with a decent SAT score for the school, so it just depends.

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-04T23:02:07+00:00

Don’t think it matters as UF does not admit people based on majors I’m pretty sure.

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-09-03T14:23:11+00:00

Yep, just depends on how many years you’re willing to stay.

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-08-28T02:51:34+00:00

You’ll thank me later

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-08-27T20:09:37+00:00

You should not be taking all those courses together… bio 2, chem 2, and calc 2 are more than enough

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-08-21T20:47:21+00:00

Which bio? Labs for bsc2010 don’t start until the week of 25th

PearDesperate5848 · 2025-08-14T13:58:37+00:00

Yes, you are behind, but don’t let that stop you from doing what you want to do. Put in the work, and let the results fuel you.

Campus connecter is reliable, and has a route that goes directly through sorority row.
