I was a 1st year student at the UofR but I recently switched to the UoS because it is a bigger school and it has more courses to offer. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions as to what classes are good to take during the 2nd year of "premed". I was told that Health Sciences 208.6 is a good choice, as well something like "Medical Terminology"? (I'm not sure if the number or the exact name since I am new). Does anyone else have any suggestions as well? Thanks! PS: I also would like to know if I am considered competitive enough for UoS med school. Currently, I have an 87.1% average, which to my understanding, is above the mean average for acceptance. However, I haven't heard directly from people whether that is a good average or not (most of the people I know have 90+ averages and is actually kind of worrying me a little) Thanks again!

If you like physiology which since you want medicine then I imagine you do then HSC 208 is a fantastic course. I was a biochem geek so I really enjoyed all of the biochem classes. I also took nutrition 120 which was a good class, good learning, and fairly easy. Just look for classes that would interest you whether they be in geology, geog., art, music english etc... As far as competitiveness it varies from year to year. this year it was a little higher than normal. It truely depends on your interview.

Be prepared to work for your grade.

Greek Myths (another classics class) was really fun if you're into that sort of thing. The prof is likely retiring so if it's not with Cavan, the class might be different. Kin 121 is, apparently, good.
