im going to be taking ochem spring quarter, because i think i need to take one more chem class before i can take ochem, which ill take winter quarter. my classes are a weird mix, because at my old school you had to pass through a few chem class before you could take bio classes(to weed out most of the bio majors, 2/3 of the class failed my second chem course and 1/3 failed the first), but here you can take bio from the getgo. so my bio class is mixed with freshmen and transfers, my calc class is mixed with sophs and juniors, my psych has a mix from all over the place, and im taking one uni studies "welcome to the university" class, which has a bunch of freshmen too. chem was unfortunately full this quarter, but im kinda glad because its my first quarter here and im getting use to the transition. ive also taken classes in anthro, music, and philosophy. (i really enjoy philosophy and i plan on reading more books related to it and taking a few more classes)

i think you'd make a good neurologist. im also interested in the brain, but i might go into cardiology or pediatrics. (im still considering taking psych as a major, but i dont think ill become a psychiatrist because i wouldnt be able to detach) i have to get through all these classes, i dont mind bio, but all the stuff like calc and chem i have to take alongside with it can be annoying.

you shouldnt become a psychologist without understanding the mechanics of the brain, it would be a charade

I really admire corganist in this respect. The last Immigration Canada thread's exhausted me for the next two years ahead.
