Kango: Should I take organic chemistry and anatomy & physiology at the same time?
I’m planning out my sophomore year, and I’m thinking about taking o-chem and A&P (anatomy and physiology) at the same time. Is this wise? Best answer would go to the person who lists the pros and cons.
If it helps:
Both o-chem and A&P are year long courses.
I’m on the pre-med Bio major track.

I see no reason not to take both classes. There’s no sense in delaying either course, assuming you’ve already completed general chem and intro biology. Both classes will provide a necessary foundation, and may in fact be prerequisites, for advanced higher level courses.
If you can handle the challenge and leave things on hold like free time, then go for it, you’ll just be studying all the time and getting little sleep.Answer by priddyboy2004
Well, I just finished my sophomore year of college and I am on the same career path as you.
Really, its up to you. Can you handle it? Are you dedicated enough? That’s really all it is.
Also, It depends what other classes are you taking… If you’re taking organic, anatomy, and a math at the same time? That might be fine. However you may want to think about taking A&P 1 in the spring because it gives you a chance to relax with organic 1 and get a good foundation to rape orgo 2 with a heavier course load.
With orgo 1 I took it with trig, ancient myth (joke), and psych (joke).
With orgo 2 I took it with public speaking (bitch class), stats, and nutrition (hard).
As you can see I took a 2 sciences and a math my second orgo semester and I did very well. And to be honest I am not a smart smart kid.
I got an A’s in both orgo’s, I found it way better then gen chem. If you put the time aside, you’ll do fine no matter what.
