is 19 credits normal for a freshman premed??

hi! im an incoming freshman planning to do the premed track. i was going through course registration and adding up the credits for the classes i think im supposed to take to stay on track, and it came out to 19 credits 😵(math 5, english 3, chem 5, bio 5 and seminar 1)

i was also hoping to do some volunteering but ngl it seems impossible to fit in this schedule. is this normal for premed students? im really worried that i’ll be cooked

second edit: Thank yall so much for the advice! It was incredibly helpful, and I really appreciate everyone who took the time to respond. I'll be meeting with my advisor soon to finalize my schedule :)
