a little help please...

<p>hello, i'm hoping some of you may be able to offer me a bit of advice.
i'm entering berkeley as a freshman this fall, thinking about majoring in psychology...i had a question about classes.</p>

<p>do you think it is a bad idea to take ENGLISH R1B--American Short Works (to fulfill the second part R&C) and Comp Lit 41D--Theatres of Cruelty (fulfills A&L breadth) at the same time my first semester??</p>

<p>here's the description for comp lit:
Comparative</a> Literature 41D, Sec. 1</p>

<p>both are four units, but Comp Lit is a seminar course, if that makes any diff (limit 30 people).</p>

<p>I'm also taking NUSCTX 10--Introduction to Human Nutrition (3 units) and PSYCH1--General Psychology (3 units)</p>

<p>14 units total.</p>

<p>so, do you think this is manageable? or should i switch out of the comp lit class? if i did this, idk, i may switch into some sort of native american studies course. i just don't want to get overloaded with reading and i'm worried my schedule isn't balanced enough.
also, a lot of people have said that the english and comp lit classes are harder, so i've become a bit worried.</p>

<p>any advice?</p>

<p>Psych and nutri sci should be fine. </p>

<p>English and Comp lit could be a lot of reading. Try it out.</p>

<p>I don’t know much about the prof for psych 1 this semester but the one for spring, Shimamura, is really easy. Offers lots of extra credit, lists of topics for exams to study, MC exams.</p>
