<p>So now that I'm a sophomore and got all the easy and necessary classes out of the way it is time for me to focus on the science classes. I wish I would've mixed some science with core classes so I wouldn't be stuck with this schedule. I'm a BS Geology major but here's my courses for the next semesters. Tell me if you think I should take fewer classes or if this is the norm. I'm a bit worried that it will burn me out and my GPA will tank. Keep in mind that Bio, Chem, and Geo, and possibly Physics all have lab. So I will have 9 individual classes to attend. </p>
<p>Fall 2013
-Calculus 1 w/analytical geometry
-Physics 1
-Biology for science majors 1
-General Chemistry 1
-Geology 2</p>
<p>Drop one. Imo it would be best to drop physics I and do it after taking calc I.</p>
<p>That’s a really tough schedule. You should’ve spaced in the easier classes. EG 3 hard & 2 easy classes-per semester. Hopefully, there there’d a few more easy classes that you can squeeze in. If not it’s time to suck it up. GL</p>
<p>While 5 math/science classes per semester is difficult, it is certainly doable. 4 with labs on the other hand…</p>
<p>How many credit hours is that schedule?</p>
<p>I just realized this would be 19 hours. My school has a limit of 18 so I would have to drop one class from my schedule. That’ll make things a lot easier. I’ll be taking summer courses from now on as well. I might graduate a year or two later than expected but I don’t care as long as I do well.</p>
<p>Reason I have all these science/math classes is because I took all the core classes first because I was undecided.</p>
<p>I agree with TomServo. Dump the Physics class.</p>
<p>Is that a calculus based or algebra based physics course? I’m assuming it’s calc based, just clarifying.</p>
<p>That’s a heavy schedule…I would definitely drop one. I agree with the others here that you should drop physics, and take it after you’ve completed calc 1.</p>
