<p>k, i called a few times and no one ever picked up my calls so I'll just ask on here and hope someone knows about this.</p>
<p>1) We don't have to decide our co-major/minor now right? I can't decide btwn operations/math/IB
2) Can Math IB SL replace Calc I? (Eventhough I don't think I'll replace)
3) If I take a Natural Science (Einstein's Universe) do I have to take Convo of the West in the future?
4) Is 16 credit hour a regular work load? It seems really little -_- i get off class by 12.15 on most days
5) I'm taking WTE, Econ I, Calc I, Natural Science. That's normal for a regular, no AS, Finance student right?
6) Does corequisite mean I have to take 2 classes at the same time?</p>
<p>I think that's it. It would be great if anyone can answer 1,some, or all of those.</p>
<p>1) Major/ Minor declared by end of 2nd year.
2) Everyone in Stern must take 4 credit math course.
3) ConWest is a required Foundation course.
4) 16 credits per semester, 32 credits per year is normal. 18 per semester is Max.
5) You have normal schedule.
6)Correct</p>
<p>just remember, for every hour in class, you will probably have to study for an hour out of class, so don't think you have it easy. At least you have a nice compact schedule, getting out so early every day!</p>
<p>Basically I meant whether I have to be in one of the classes for 1 semster or can I just use my IB mark and skip it.
In other words, if I can skip Calc I MUST I take Calc II?</p>
<p>How many classes of calc does a finance major need anyway?</p>
<p>im just confused over whether i should take
Calc or CBS
and
ConWest or Natural Science </p>
<p>are all these courses compulsary?</p>
<p>Damn their system for being so inefficient.</p>
<p>Everything that Stern says you must take is compulsary. That is, you cannot graduate without having taken what's on the Curriculum Record. The only things you get to choose are: your major courses (mix of required and electives for each major) and your 32 elective credits (18 of which must be CAS).</p>
<p><em>edit</em> with some notable exceptions: i.e. Integrated business Experience where it has a really big OR between each of the three classes</p>
<p>WTE: You will be expected to write 2-5 pages (depending on where you are in the progression) for every class. A lot of times this means you have to write a 7 page rough draft for a progression in the one day between your classes. However, you adjust to the workload fairly quickly. The class is comprised of 3 major essays (progressions), 7-9 pages each with about 5-7 exercises for each progression. The class is graded on 30% for each final essay, plus 10% for participation and handing in exercises on time.</p>
<p>World Cultures - Differs from class to class, TA to TA. I had Russia Since 1917, class was graded on 3 3-page essays, 1 midterm, participation in recitation (25% with my TA) and 2 5-page final essays. Lectures were important pre-midterm, as short answer questions for the midterm were based off of that. There was a lot of reading assigned, however, you are not expected to read it all. All your material for your essays SHOULD come from the course readings, and there's plenty go on. Overall, I felt it was an easy class as long as you go to recitation, take good notes (as Cohen, great as he is, never really tells you "this is important") and write well. Word of advice, any of his "words" written on the board are potential midterm questions.</p>
<p>ConWest - I will be taking this semester, from what I've heard, this one is definitely based on professor and TA. Experiences range from great to awful.</p>
<p>One more question, what day is R?
I'm registering for writing the essay V40.0100, but in conjuction with that I have to register for V55. 0404 - CONV OF THE WEST: ANTIQ AND THE 19TH CENTURY. Under days it says R.</p>
<p>Calc I V63.0121 does not require recitations
Class covers Derivatives, antiderivatives, and integrals of functions of one variable. Applications include graphing, maximizing, and minimizing functions. Definite integrals and the fundamental theorem of calculus.</p>
<p>Algebra & Calc with appl in business V63.0017 requires recitations.
Class covers Derivatives, antiderivatives, and integrals of functions of one real variable. Logarithmic and exponential functions. Functions of several variables and partial derivatives. Maxima and minima. Integration.</p>
<p>All the Stern freshman classes are at CAS, not Stern. The only Stern class on the curriculum on the incoming freshmen list is Computer Based Systems. However, with the new required math course policy, I don't think Computer Based Systems is an option anymore.</p>
<p>Omg, why don't recitations appear when officially registering...really this system is crappy. Anyone help me with this? I'm so mad, its June 9th and there's only one Principles of Econ 1 class left...</p>
<p>The only way tht a recitation won't appear is if it is full. This can happen if somebody registers for the recitation only. Then the recitation is full and the lecture has an extra space.</p>
