I'd say the total opposite lol. If science is hard for you (it is for me!), consider taking a science class for a non-science major at your school or online at a school like Ocean County College . For 6 credits you'll need 2 semesters, but you could take bio 101 for 3 the first semester, then take the CLEP Natural Science exam (which is roughly 50% bio) by doing a little study in the chemistry/physical sciences.
The reason I suggest the class, is because your whole grade doesn't rest on cramming an entire subject into your brain- you have multiple home work assignments, etc, and even a few bad grades won't prevent you from getting a pass in the class. In the case of Ocean (where I took my sciences) there were open book multiple choice tests every week, which made it easy to pull a good grade. Ocean also has full length or accelerated semesters, so it's not terrible.
If you decide NOT to try for the natural science CLEP, I'd suggest nutrition taken from your biology dept for the second semester. Good luck!!
