College of General Studies

<p>ThomasH32 - I'm a full time software engineer by day and can handle 2 classes pretty easily. Its just a matter of moving my lunch hours around. Fortunately I work for a flexible company.</p>

<p>I'll be doing three languages next year: upper level Latin, intermediate Greek, and intermediate French (only the French in CGS per se) but I've made arrangements with my company to lighten my office workload a bit so it shouldn't be a problem.</p>

<p>If you're a full time student 4 courses is the normal load for the College, 5 for Engineering and Wharton. Be aware however that if you take 4 or more courses in CGS you get killed on fees. </p>

<p>Penn15 - Don't underestimate the value of age and experience. And those high school kids - I've only run into 1, and she was easily the equal of of the regular days students, the CGSers and the post-Bacs in that class. </p>

<p>I guess we've been taking different CGS courses - since I left diffe-q behind 30 years ago I can't speak to the elementary math courses you mentioned. I can't imagine any introductory science class would be that hard, but again, I left that behind some time ago. </p>

<p>I've taken mainly languages in CGS and know they run at exactly the same pace as the day courses since I occasionally drop in on the day class when I have to miss an evening session to make a deliverable.</p>

<p>But, whatever... YMMV</p>

<p>hey thomas, were you accepted into the CGS program at UPENN? OR the liberal arts department?</p>
