  3. I've taken all my prerequisites besides microbio and stats and gotten As so far. Next semester i'm planning on taking microbio for sure, but i'm not sure about stats. I intend to retake the teas in a...
  4. Another "Am I good enough" Post!

    If you barely meet the minimum and you have to ask if you should retake it, then you should retake it. It's always better to go for another attempt and secure a seat than to try to scrape by. The...

  12. What 3 classes should i take together?
