should I do stats with chem2 or orgo chem?

im trying to plan for the year and im unsure of when to do statistics, in the fall or spring? il be doing chem2 in the fall and orgo with the spring. I also gotta do enc 1102 for fall and psy 2012 for spring, although im not sure if I should switch those. my mom thinks I should do stats with orgo since chem2 is more focused on math then orgo is, or so ive heard, but i see a lot of people talking about orgo like its a class from hell you have to spend a lot of time on, and im not very good at math so im a bit worried of doing that.

I would wait to talk to my counselor but I wont be able to talk to him for a month or so at the earliest, and I want to pick my classes now so i dont try to sign up and it shows no seats available.

I feel like I don't know anything

I am currently a biomed student, I was in my back up school and got a C in bio 1 and I got a B in bio 2. I transferred over to the one I wanted to go to originally this year, and with my first semester and after looking at the upper class catalouge stuff and I've been wondering if I should switch to biology after looking over the class catalogs

I guess I didn't think college would be this hard? I thought it'd be closer to highschool, with exams inly being a portion, but here its like exams are half of the classes grade percent at best, and honestly it stresses me out due to the pressure. It doesnt help i never had to study in highschool and so had no study habits coming in.

Idk, I know I need to talk to an advisor but I can't right now, and i dont want to talk to my mom about it again because I can feel it stresses her out, and i dont really have any friends any i have have drifted away. I just feel like wether or not I switch majors I'll screw myself over. I feel like I know nothing, because I dont, if i change my major what are the long term consequences? If i stay what are the long term consequences?

I see people saying biology has useless bullshit classes, and i see people call biomed a torture degree, I see people say neither have employment opportunities or only one has opportunities, I see people say biomed is only good if you go to med school or want to work in a lab, I see people say biology is a useless degree unless you do furthur schoolign, and its just so discouraging. It doesn't help that like, you need a good paying job to survive especially with all the inflation and stuff going on, like what's going to make me financially stable and give me enjoyment?

I mean, my plan was always to do furthur education, specifically go to med school, but im not sure if i even want to do that anymore. I want to do something in the health feild, i think, but also what about something in the animal feild? I enjoy anatomy more then i do looking in a microscope so would bio be better? But then im not really interested in plants so maybe not? Biomed has classes like intro to disease which sounds interesting, should i stay in it for the interesting upper leevl courses? Id have to do two molecular biology classes for biomed, but id have to do molecular cell biology for bio.

Some people will see this and think maybe i should do something other then college or take a gap year or soemthing but like, i have no clue what id do instead of college and if I took a gap year I feel like I'd be unmotivated to continue on the furthur education path, and tbh i do want to specialize in something. I want to do something to do with biology, physical therapist, doctor, geneticist, forensic scientist, zoologist. I just feel like college is going to get so much more harder the longer I do it, and I don't know what I want to do long term.

I just feel like highschool was so simple and suddenly my gamemode has been shot up form easy to hard, and i feel like im in a void where I dont know anything for certain and yet still have to make adult decisions.

I don't really want advice this is mainly to vent but like, has anyone else felt this way?

Debating changing my major from biomed or biology, any advice?

As the title says I am a biomed student, in my first year, debating on changing my major to jsut biology. Well, biology pre health. ​ And I jsut am not sure if I should. I don't know if it'll be a good or bad thing, I feel like I don't know anything. I plan to talk with my advisor but I won't be able to until late next month

I'm thinking of changing my major because biology seems to have lighter course work, thats not the only reason ofc, im also finding im into more anatomy and animal stuff then i am looking through a microscope which I feel biomed would ahve a lot more of. And my plan was to always do more school after my four years, for a masters or doctorate im not to sure i just know id like to do something in the health feild. And im pretty sure I can hit any of the pre reqs to any post schooling stuff with biology

I also think itd give me a better gpa? Like, with biomed i got As and Bs the whole year and one C, my gpa is a 3.21. It was a 3.2 the first semester. And it just feels kinda dishesrtening, and if my research is right I couldve had a higher gpa with regulsr bio because biomed is a "get a job right out of college" type of degree so its weighed more. Idk if thats true though

Idk, im thinking of looking at the class courses again for each major this weekend and maybe searching up the classes and their syllabus' its something i have to do later. Its just that i have to sign up for my fall semester classes soon and its been on my mind more and more, and i have no idea what the right answer is and it feels sk stressful knowing i have to pick a major by the end of next year befor ei start taking higher level classes that lock me into that major, and if i hate my major i cant change it. I didnt think college would be this difficult to figure out...

Any base tops or advice?

Okay so I have this as my base rn, and tbh I kinda feel like I want to take the stone thing down and maybe like, build a castle inspired thing? But I spent so long on building, like two days, but as I was adding the uh assembly lines in on the 2nd floor I relized A) it's inefficient B) it's ugly as hell.

Thing is I dont want to jsut cover the ground with stone because i dont fully want to get rid of the grass and stuff. I don't really want to move my main base, but I am unsure if I have enough room to build what I want, I can't really add more bases near it because it tells me I'm to close, so. Anyways, any tips for building and maybe ideas on how to do it would be appreciated

Should I do pre calc or statistics?

Hi, so, I'm a transfer starting this summer both classes are for summer b due to the fact I don't have my own car yet, also the precalc is only for summer b. I have to do a math class this summer as I didn't do one last semester and....well I gotta start sooner rather then later. So these are my two choices, people I've talked to said to do pre calc and during orientation I didn't get the chance to ask my advisor what they thought as there was a lot going on.

This is, looking at the two classes, pre cslc is from 1030-12 and 3-330, while statistics is 2-330, and so I'm a bit concerned about the class difference meaning pre calc will be harder, but...maybe thats a reason to take it now so i dont gitta focus in 3 ither classes alingside it. I suck at math, have never been good at it, word problems are especially tricky for me, so im jsut concerned about taing one in general. I took ap stats in highschool and while I passed the class I got 1 on the ap exam, if that give any advice.

Idk, I'm just not sure which would be the best for the limited time summer offers for the class. In leaning a bit towards pre calc, because again everyone I've talked to said to do it and it is what I planned going in, but the two classes monday/Wednesday(iirc) 4 classes in total each week, makes me a bit nervous so, I figured I would ask for advice

Molecular cell biology vs molecular biology what's the difference?

Hi, so, I'm a biomedical science major who debating changing my major to biology, one of the class diference is this. For biomed I'd have to take molecular cell bio 1&2, for biology I'd have to take molecular biology and I'm just wondering if anyone has any information on the difference between them, because I have to clue, they sound like the same thing to me.

Im trying to get a feel of what each major might be like, one of the reasons im debating changing my major is due to how im more intereste din animals and how viruses affect people rather then cell structure and how they make sugar and stuff. Idk, it's all so confusing to me and I'm only finishing up my first year, and I'm sjut trying to figure it out and I figured "hey, asking biology majors what the difference is between these classes might help get a feel for each majors classes" you know?

edit: checking the class catalouge and its actuall for bio is take molecular cell biology, for biomed id take molecular biology 1&2

I'm thinking of rebuilding my base, like, taking away all the wor stations and building a two Plat form thing. I was thinking of putting the work stages in the bottom floor and farms on the second, but I'm not sure eif it's looked good, and with the assembly lines I'm not entirely sure what to do

Like, I want to have a big open base, my current base is at the first tower you run into, the feild of new beginnings or whatever, it's where I've always based before so i donts exactly want to leave it, but also ive never gotten into the game this far, i usually lose interest by the time i reach level 15, so ive never had this many items ti oick from and im nit sure if i should keep my base in the new beggings thing.

I kind of want to have it closer tot he small settlement, but i dont see any good places to base over there​. Idk, I had this idea for a huge base, a castle like one you know? And I'm jsut not sure if I want to stay in the current area and do that or move somewhere else.

I also don't stay at my base to long, usually jsut to drop stuff off, so I didn't really think abiut this until I couldn't move forward with capturing the bosses without better spheres and had to stay put while they got built.

Idk, just figured I'd ask

I'm an incoming transfer student and soemines left out a whole text book, the picture above, I was just wondering if the ucf class uses this one to or if it's a different book, cause I don't want to take it and have it be useless. It doesn't say university specific, which is why I'm wondering if ucf would use it to
