Course Selection Advice

Hi! Im an incoming freshman who is currently undecided about my major. I know I’m interested in STEM as I really enjoyed my AP Bio class last year, but I’m not sure which field yet. I know I don’t want to do Premed and Im trying to take broad range of STEM courses during my first year to help me decide.

My current schedule is:
BIOL 1171 – First Year Opportunity: Neuroscience Futures I: How Do We Learn About the Brain?
MATH 2130
BME 1400
PSYCH 1000
College Writing

I’ve read that Calc III is generally easier in the spring (especially with Professor Schaefer), and I’m concerned my fall course load may be a bit heavy while adjusting to college. Would you recommend waiting until spring to take Calc III or is it better to take it this fall? Also does my current schedule fit well with my context or are there other classes that you would recommend. Thanks!
