Hey,
I am soon going to start applying for one of the pre reqs for langara and bcit. I just wanted to know from anyone's personal experience, how many pre reqs should you do at a time ? I know that the bio classes apparently have long wait lists ? Also, good luck to everyone completing their pre reqs !

For Langara, you cannot take both the BIOL classes or the ENGL classes at the same time as BIOL 1190 is a pre-req for 1191 and ENGL 1127 is a pre-req for 1129...
The BIOL courses have quite an intensive courseload... everything else is relative. I personally felt comfortable taking PSYCH, STAT and ENGL together in the same semester.

Hey! I don't know if you've already taken your Bio classes, but I figured I'd give my advice anyways :)
The Bio classes definitely fill up fast. The issue I had at Douglas and Langara was that I would get into the first bio class, but would not be able to get into the second one. I spent almost a year fighting for a spot for the second bio class. A friend recommended I take it at BCIT and would TOTALLY recommend it! It's a 6 credit class, so it's the first and second bio all in one course. I found it a lot easier- it wasn't as in-depth as the other A&P classes at Langara and Douglas since it was considered an accelerated course. So if you haven't taken the Bio classes yet, trust me, take BHSC 1200 at BCIT! I got around a C+ every time I took the first bio (which was 4 times), but ended with an A at BCIT.
Hope this helps! Good luck :)
