At the moment: (In final year for Bachelor of Science)

Linear Algebra

Computer Vision
Automata Theory
Logical Programming (PROLOG) - AI class but I'm taking it for fun more or less.

I'm not sure what classes I'll have in the rest of the year, but I know it includes building compilers, calculus (2), models/simulating, process theory, natural language processing and some others. Probably forgetting some.

First semester:

English 4H
CBA II

Second Semester:
Idk but i know it has Physics AP in it lol.

at Ogre, your school sure does offer a lot of AP Classes! AP Physics it self has got me studying for 5 hours each day (primary reason why im inactive), the rest is pretty much chill.

Junior in high school…

Spanish III*
US History*
Multimedia Design (Need an arts credit to graduate…otherwise wouldn't waste my time in this class)
English III
Calculus I*
Biology*

* Honors. No AP's at my school because they determined that quality of what we learn was more important than the quantity. I.e. We don't cover as many topics as AP's but the ones we do cover we cover more in depth.

Same, I have thought about double majoring with Electrical Engineering after I get a BS in Computer and get a job. They are very similar majors.

What college you go to Nava? The course numbers and titles look really close to what I have to take in the Cal State system.

I'm actually doing a double degree program. I'm getting a BESc. and a BSc, BESc in Computer Eng. and a BSc in Computer Science. Much like a double major, except I will have two degrees under my belt.

I live in Canadia, but I go to UWO if that helps :)

What he's taking makes me think he is going quite far away from a chiropractor. Based on his selection (assuming its first year) means that his courses don't have too much weight in what he's going into. Based on this loose information, it looks like he may be going possibly into veterinary stuff? Though animal physiology here is a third year course, it could really open up the doors for anything. The path he's taking looks more biochemical than anything.
Of course I'm just speculating.

Remember, if you take science, it opens SO MANY doors until you specialize in your last years. Even then, if you go on for Masters/PhD your field can still change so much.

I Just know here all the classes he's taking seem to point to building a road to something like chiro, veterinary, if he was athletic and taking pac classes I'd think maybe physio. But that's just me.

Have you taken science at university :p? (just wondering :)!)
The most basic of courses could take you down some abandoned path to a totally new area.
While it'd be cool to say "Yeah dude he's going to be a chiro!", unfortunately the first year is so ambiguous that you and I have equal footing on guessing at what he could be come. It so cool :D

I'm actually taking animal physiology because I think it might resemble human physiology.
I didn't get into med school this year, so now I'm taking courses that support my studies to the next year's entrance test.

So I'm going to be a doctor, just not in the school yet ;)

Good luck with the endeavor, over here its truly a bitch to get in. I wanted to be one, but after Human anatomy I stopped because I found learning muscles really boring – but I love physiology

I don't know how competitive it is in your home country, but over here you have to have like hundreds of hours of extracurricular activities and a [what would be] 84%+ average to get into medical school. Now that I think about it, 84 doesnt sound too bad here, but damn it is hard to get :( You have to truly have the drive. I worked my ass off and I'm sitting at 78%, and since its the last year for me… even if I get 100% in all my courses I'll only get up to 80%– so thats a bit discouraging :/
Thus I wish you GL and if youre stuck on anything (probably not, I think you know what you're doing ;)) I'd be glad to assist.
