For those students who are interested in taking all three 30 level naturalsciences so as to keep all of their post-secondary options open, apathway similar to the following is recommended. This suggestion allows
students to take all of the 30 level sciences without having to take morethan one science in any given semester.
The key is to take science 10 in the first semester of grade 10. Thisallows you to start taking the 20 levels science classes in the secondsemester of grade 10 to avoid two science classes in one semester in
grade 11 or 12.
