<p>ucb-Thanks for the tips. Hopefully I’ll be able to figure out a way to squeeze a language course into my schedule, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to or not. I’d love to get at least a year of it out of the way before I transfer though, so I can devote my time to my majors after transfer. We’ll see.</p>
<p>xray-Thanks for the info. Particle physics is one of the areas that interests me most, and I’m actually kinda torn between whether I eventually want to gravitate towards that or astrophysics. Ideally, I’d like to do both though in all reality. I’ve still got plenty of time to figure that out though.</p>
<p>I only see two astronomy courses at IIT…and introductory Astronomy course and an Astrophysics course. Is this all that’s available in that field at IIT? That would be a bit of a drawback to me, but it wouldn’t necessarily prevent me from wanting to go there. Overall, IIT looks like a very good school and I’ve heard great things about it from the research I’ve done on it. I’m hoping to get into Phi Theta Kappa as well after I get some more credits built up. </p>
<p>I posted another thread about this in the admissions section, but I might as well ask here too: How important are extracurricular activities going to be for me when transferring as a junior? I successfully ran a tree trimming business with my brother for about 6 years, until we both got tired of all the physical work and decided to go back to school. I’m also planning on joining the Math Club at here, and I’m trying to get into Americorps, both for the experience that it brings, and the money/scholarships that they offer. With that on my side, should I be worried about looking for more EC’s to get involved in?</p>
<p>Also, can anyone tell me how to quote posts on here? I see the option for it below the quick reply window, but it’s not seeming to work for me.</p>
