All too often students enter their sophomore years with poor grades in two or three difficult (or not so difficult) science courses and decide that because of these poor grades earned during their freshman year, they should not go on. To avoid such discouragements, which often snowball...
Math Ar and Math la together are a good pair for the medical school premed requirement and for preparation for Nat Sci 3 or other chemistry courses. Realize that Math la (also Math 21a) is offered in the Spring as well as the Fall, and that Math lb is offered...
N.B.: Nat Sci la is not intended to be useful in providing a background for further math courses not for competence in calculations necessary for science courses; it should not be taken to fulfil premed requirements.
If you are not intending concentration in Biology and you have strong background in the sciences. I would suggest fulfilling the premed requirement in biology with Bio 2 and say one of the between level courses with lab rather than with Bio 1 and 2. Bio 1 simply is not...
