2 AnswersMathematics10 years agoAre the courses I chose the right ones?
Hello, I want to be a Pharmacist when I grow up. I'm starting school tomorrow going into grade 11, and soon University. The courses for the first semester are Math (college/University level), gym, chemistry and biology (both University level). The second semester I have University level math and English and two periods in a co-op program at a Pharmacy. I'm not sure if I should be taking gym because when I apply to University it will show that I took gym. I think I might switch it with law or even computer science (my counselor said it is hard though). Is gym OK? Next year I won't be taking it. Should I switch gym for Canadian Law or Introduction to Sociology, anthropology?
