NOTES

It is recommended that students take CHE3000/3010 as soon as possible after completing CHE1810/1850.

Advice:

You should not take more than three science and/or math courses per semester. Despite what others may say, NEVER take a course without the proper prerequisites, there is simply no sense in putting yourself at an academic disadvantage in order to meet some artificial deadline. Remember, individuals evaluating a transcript will not be impressed by mediocre grades just because you managed to pass the course without the prerequisites. In the unlikely event the evaluator notices the discrepancy, it will probably count against you, as demonstrating poor judgment.
