Another freshman schedule

<p>So, here is a schedule just like everyone else</p>

<p>Econ 1 with Train
Stats 21 with Stark
Astronomy 10 with Filippenko
Psych 1 with Kihlstrom</p>

<p>This is total 15 unites ( pysch is the only one with 3 units). Is this schedule doable? I know 15 units is kind of a lot for an incoming freshman.
I am kind of math oriented student aiming for Haas. Since I just took AP stats and econ, I want to take those classes before I forget about most of them. </p>

<p>P.S. How is Psych 1? I barely know anything about this class....</p>

<p>come on… 60 views… no reply? bump bump</p>

<p>That is four classes, all big lectures. I would try to find a smaller class, something a little more off-beat. These are all things you can take at a Community College! Take something more exciting. Philosophy 7? Not small class but uniquely Berkeley. Look for something that catches your interest.</p>

<p>The counselors at CalSO told us not to take Econ 1 during the first semester. They say it’s extremely competitive. :)</p>

<p>15 units isn’t very bad at all. 4 classes total is the norm, I’d say. those who want to take it easy take 3. I don’t know too much about all the classes, but I’d recommend checking both pick-a-prof and ratemyprofessors to learn more about how hard each course is, but just looking at that I’d say it’s fine. my friends say psych and astro are both very easy classes, and I’ve heard varying opinions about stats and econ 1.</p>

<p>That’s fine. Just work hard in stats and econ. If you start not doing so well, just P/NP astro and focus more on your pre-reqs.</p>

<p>Actually econ, psych, astro are all big classes, but stats with Stark is a quite small class. (only 100 people). As for econ, I specifically asked calso counselors why they do not recommend econ for first semester, and they said its because it has hard math and competitive. Well i decided to take it so I can really see if i am interested in economics.
Thanks for all your input guys~</p>

<p>15 units is pretty chill if you’re a good student. Besides, none of these 4 classes is at killer level in terms of workload or difficulty. Just go for it!</p>

<p>You might also consider adding one or two seminar classes, to balance with all the big lectures.</p>
