Aboout how many classes should one expect to take in a semester in college?

Taking 6-7 classes in a row in one day for high school can be a grueling task, but I have heard that most people take far fewer in college with breaks in between. What should I expect going into freshman year? #class #freshman

Is it true that the further away you live from a college, the more likely you are to get accepted (of course compared with others with the same GPA, activities, etc . who live closer)

Wondering if I should look at colleges with a further distance from my area #collegeacceptance #acceptancerate

How would you recommend going about getting a Pre-Med degree? Should I get my undergraduate from a lesser known school and then apply to a Duke or Johns Hopkins for medical school? I'm just nervous about how much I will be racking in up in student loans

I want to become a pediatric endocrinologist as I was diagnosed with diabetes at age 12 and want to help other children accept and deal with this disease. #medicine #studentloans #typeonediabetes #wanttohelpothers
