Breadth Tracks

I'm kinda confused in regards to breadth tracks. You are required to complete three subjects in the breadth track. Are these subjects suppose to be completed in a manner in which you do two in say semester one and one in semester two? If so, is that overloading, because I see that you only have to do one breadth subject a semester.
(This is in relation to first year undergrad.)
Also, can level 3 subjects be done in year 2 and level 2 be done in year 1?
One last question, when enrolling in subjects for first year, am I choosing the subjects i'm doing for the next three years of biomedicine, including breadths, because there is also an option to choose your major, and well I got no clue on what I would be doing by third year.

Hey!

Breadth tracks are just a fancy label for a group of breadth subjects that make a nice 'set'. I don't know if people advertise these to employers etc. if you're applying to med, they tend not to care that much as long as you do well! You do a breadth track over the course of your degree, and shouldn't have to overload or underlay at any point (unless you'd like to of course).

You can do any level subjects any year, as long as you meet the pre-requisites and don't exceed the maximum number of subjects at that level. For biomed, for example, you can only do three level 1 breadths over your degree.

Don't worry about choosing your major! You don't have to fill out the whole study plan right away/put something random in and it won't matter because you have a chance to change it every year. It's just supposed to help you visualise the direction your degree will eventually take.
