I am going to be a Freshman in college now and I was wondering if 17 credits is too much. The classes that I chose to have are;
-ENGLISH 97
-ENGLISH 101
-MATH 140
-PSYCH 201
-SPANISH 102 (even though I am eligible for 103 but I wanted to take it easy on the language class since Spanish isn’t my first language and I wanted to be able to do better)

I honestly think I’ll be okay but I just wanted to get some opinions from people that already know their flow of college and classes and know these classes already. Thank you:)

Course numbers can be different at each college. What is the title of ENGLISH 97, MATH 150 and PSYCH 201? I presume that ENGLISH 101 is English Composition and SPANISH 102 is Spanish II?

And is English 97 for credit? Often the courses numbered under 100 are remedial and you won’t be able to transfer that course to a 4 year university.

It would help others help you if you named the college, since course numbers are different at each college.

English, Math, and Spanish placement presumably are dependent on what you completed in high school and/or how you did on the college’s placement testing and/or scores on relevant AP and/or SAT subject tests.
