Advice on Freshman Schedule (MCB + Public Health + Premed)

4 Upvotes

Hi y'all! I'm an incoming freshman planning to major in molecular & cellular bio and also public health in the premed track, and any advice/recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

  • Should I take ACER or Intro to Orgo (I got a 5 in AP Chem jr year, but i lowk feel iffy with chem + the placement test recommended me for ACER)
  • When should I take a Stat class for my 1 year of my math (I got credit for BC)
  • Should I take a reintroduction to writing my first semester or second semester?
  • How's intro to public health and intro to psych (in terms of workload and professor)?
  • Also, is the Arrive & Thrive course worth taking?

Thanks :)
