College Biology and chemistry?

You should go to the local college bookstore and get the introductory bio textbook.  THere are tons of them out there, I don't know of any one that is better than the others.  It would help if you had a syllibus so you know what subjects will be discussed.  I wouldn't worry about it until you take the course though, you'll probably forget everything you've read if you just read the book straight through.

Wow, she's depressing.  I've actually loved a lot of the college classes I took.  I've got one now that I hate, but you can't win 'em all, right?  Actually, college classes are usually a lot MORE interesting than what I got in high school.  I can't speak about Chemistry much (I've managed to avoid it most of my life), but I've found that most subjects in college just go deeper into areas I didn't know existed, and I got to find out lots of neat things.  I suspect you'll find you like some of what you find in college, and not so much in others.  But if you like Chemistry, give it a try.  A lot of how much you like a subject in college depends a lot on how good the people teaching it are.  You can always change your major if you don't like the professors or something.  As long as you've decided for sure by the beginning of your 3rd year, you are probably not going to lose much time.

Physics! It's much more math centric, and more fun then chemistry!  Good luck.

you definetely need biology (especially molecular biology and anything to do with genetics, but don't neglect your general biology), you need chemistry (nope, can't escape from it, especially organic chemistry), you need biochemistry, some math and some physics ( you'll eventually find them useful).

Beware of BIOCHEMISTRY(from my own experience.. all doctors in med school exprerienced a hard time in Biochem, even our scholars and Magna-cum-laude. But of course they got better grades than us). Biochemistery covers almost everything... (PROTEIN CHEMISTRY AND METAB, AMINO ACIDS CHEMISTRY AND METAB, CARBOHYDRATE CHEMISTRY AND METAB, LIPID CHEMISTRY AND METAB, VITAMINS, MINERALS, DNA CHEMISTRY AND METAB, ENERGY METAB, ONCOGENESIS Purine and Pyrimidine synthesis&Metab,,, ETC.) To make it short...Biochem today is MOLECULAR in approach that is why it also cover CELL BIOLOGY and physiology. \nSo my advise is to you is to take cell biology which i know is not complicated and easier.\nCheck out  BIochemistry of Harpers or Lippincott (the easier approach)...for you to find out\ni hope this  one is helpful to you!\nGoodluck!

The SAT II in Bio is very easy.  I took AP biology and i though the SAT II was a joke.  your fine, its not that hard.

Career Opportunities in Biology \n\nThis section includes brief descriptions of a few selected careers in biology and medicine, and how they relate to the Biology major at Muhlenberg. We have included some suggested courses for each career goal to help you think about how to organize your curriculum around your goals.\n\nBiomedical research :: Cancer research :: Cell/Molecular biology :: Genetics :: Developmental biology \nThere are currently abundant opportunities in academic institutions, medical schools, the government, and pharmaceutical industry for individuals with training in modern biotechnology. You can work in these settings with a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree as a technician, or as a scientist with a Ph.D. Many students may work for one or two years following graduation in one of these settings with only their B.S. from Muhlenberg. A lifetime career in one of these areas generally requires a Ph.D., although there now exist some specialized M.S. programs that are designed to prepare students for a technical career in the biotechnology industry. Currently, individuals with an M.D. are working in these areas, but this is likely to decrease in the future, given changes in the American medical establishment. If you are interested in working in one of these areas, even for a relatively short period of time, you should plan to take: Biochemistry, Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, Genetics, Immunology, Microbiology, and Molecular Biology. You should also take two years of Chemistry, a year of Physics, Calculus, and perhaps Physical Chemistry, particularly if you are interested in a biochemically-oriented position (e.g., working in a pharmaceutical setting). Laboratory research experience is generally required for admission to graduate programs.\n\nNeuroscience \nThe expectations for graduate study and a career in Neuroscience are similar to the above section, with additional emphasis on Psychology. Students interested in a career in Neuroscience should take the usual two years of Chemistry, and one year each of Physics and Calculus. Upper level Biology courses that you should take include: Biochemistry, Cell Biology, Comparative Anatomy, Development Biology, General Physiology, Molecular Biology, Neurobiology, Advanced Topics in Neuroscience, and Transmission Electron Microscopy. Courses in other Departments include: Mind and Brain, Introductory Psychology, Cognitive Processes, Biological Psychology, Sensation and Perception, and Philosophy of Mind. Once again, laboratory research experience is an expectation of graduate programs in this area.\n\nEcology :: Evolutionary biology\nStudents interested in careers as a professional ecologist or evolutionary biologist should prepare for graduate school. Individuals work in these fields with Bachelors’, Masters’, and Ph.D. degrees. If you are interested in a career in these areas you should take Ecology, Evolution, Field Botany and Plant Ecology, and Genetics. You will also need to take Statistics, and a year of Physics, Calculus, and Chemistry. Significant field research experience is also a must. You may also want to enroll in Botany, Comparative Anatomy, Ethology, General Physiology, Molecular Biology, Ornithology, Physiological Ecology, Plant Evolutionary Biology, Zoology, the special field experience trips to Costa Rica and/or Bermuda, and Advanced Statistics.\n\nApplied ecology :: Environmental management :: Forestry\nStudents majoring in Biology may seek employment or graduate education in applied ecology and related fields. If you are interested in one of these areas plan on taking Ecology, Field Botany and Plant Ecology, Genetics, and Conservation and Restoration Ecology (to be added to the curriculum soon). You should also enroll in Statistics, Microeconomics, and complete a year of Physics, Calculus, and Chemistry. Other courses you should consider are: Botany, Ethology, General Physiology, Physiological Ecology, Plant Evolutionary Biology, Ornithology, Inve

Hello,\n\nThe simple answer is "no."  To be honest, you can major in almost anything and still apply to medical schools.  However, most advisers would encourage you to take the following classes:\n\nCalculus 1 and 2\nBiology 1 and 2 (including the lab courses)\nChemistry 1 and 2 (including the lab courses)\nBiochemistry (including the lab course)\nOrganic Chemistry (including the lab course)\nPhysics 1 and 2 (including the lab course)\n\nI would stay away from any science class that is for "poets."  These are science classes for non-science major or premed students like "Chemistry and the environment" or "Everyday Physics."  :-)  \n\nThe list above includes most of the courses medical school look for when reviewing transcripts.  Make sure you speak with an adviser that works with students applying to medical school for up-to-date information.  Most medical schools require the MCAT, letters of recommendation, and an essay (or essays) as well.  Since medical school is very competitive, you demostrate that you can not only handle the work but excel.\n\nOne last thing, today's medical schools are seeking "well rounded" students so take other liberal arts classes and get out and get involved!\n\nGood luck,\n\nAl R.

Sure.  I was at Georgia Tech for my graduate degree, and many of the students I was in Chemical Engineering with had other undergraduate degrees.  One had biology, another had a BA instead of a BS in Chemistry (meaning they had much more humanities as core vs. science as a core).  So I don't see why not.  It's up to the school you are going to.

Basic college prep courses.  How you do is more important then the actual classes. If there is any science club at your school join it and try to become an officier.

I would take AP calculus. Usually (for biochem majors), calculus is a core course: required but not directly related to your major. Chemistry will, however be directly required for your major. This means that the university you will be attending will be less likely to accept AP chem for credit, and more likely to accept AP calc. So, unless you want to take college level chemistry twice, go for the calculus.

Couldn't tell from your question if you're a definite on going to med school or not. If you are, then concentrate on the bio -easier for your GPA and you won't use anything from undergrad anyways. But, since you're good at math and chem, you might think about research. You can work toward being a biochemist. Plenty of opportunities in research hospitals. Maybe try some undergrad research and see how you like being in the lab. You won't find that out from the course labs. I'm sure the course curriculum between the two double majors is similar so don't worry about it right now. Get through the introductory courses and decide then. You won't start figuring out what you like until later anyways. Keep your GPA up and things will fall in to place.
