choice of freshman seminars?

<p>Hey people, as every1 here knows the fershman seminars at princeton absolutely rockin :cool:! and from what i have heard, u can't afford to miss them. Have you all thought about what you guys are going to apply for??? I am kinda lost in midst of so many choices...and would love to know your choices...</p>

<p>I am leaning towards the followin-
1. Merchants of Venice: Understanding business in premodern world.
2. Modern Financial markets
3. Rocket science!</p>

<p>So you want to be Secretary of State</p>

<p>It depends on what the 05-06 ones are. Among the 04-05s, I really liked Brain: Consciousness and Mind; The Problem of Suffering, An Abiding Thirst: Understanding Poverty and Equality in America; The Tragic, the Comic, and the Political; and Human Dignity in Law and Political Thought. All of those seem so awesome. It'll be hard narrowing the list down, for sure.</p>

<p>When does the 2005-2006 list of Seminars come out?
Are the seminars likely to be the same as last year's?</p>

<p>Some of the '08ers said they're pretty much the same from year to year, although some are changed out every class.</p>

<p>... I thought that was the writing seminars? And fresh sem's change more often?</p>

<p>There is always some change in Freshman Seminars, but a lot of them are offered every year. At any rate, you should be able to find a seminar to your liking, or not take one at all in the Fall.</p>

<p>Yeah, it's the same for FRS and WRI. Different ones offered in fall and spring (for FRS).</p>

<p>gah i have NO idea what i want to take. do we meet with a counselor b4 we pick our first semester classes? man i hope so, otherwise i'm gonna be so lost.</p>

<p>Yeah, we meet with a pre-assigned adviser.</p>

<p><em>phew</em> (10 characters)</p>

<p>can you have more then one seminar? isn't the Writing seminar the required seminar for freshmen?</p>

<p>An '08 friend of mine took a seminar fall semester and one spring. So yeah, you can take more than one. And yes, WRI is required for all first-year students.</p>

<p>you can take upto four freshman seminars- you have to submit application essays for only two though</p>

<p>is anyone else interested in the freshman seminar about food? or is that not a serious enough subject?</p>

<p>You can only take one FRS a term and can apply for up to four each term. Theyre a great experience and I sure loved mine (one both semesters, got into two in the spring so I was allowed to pick which one i wanted).</p>

<p>and pimpdaddy...does that 1 FRS per semester including the writing seminar??</p>

<p>btw - i love ur sn :p</p>

<p>The WRI seminar is completely different from the FRS. You can take both a WRI seminar and a FRS in the same semester.</p>
