<p>so ive realized that taking a cluster was a mistake. its a waste of my time when i could be taking much more interesting classes. so what would i loose if i dropped a cluster after 1 quarter?</p>
<p>you lose the benefits of the cluster, but otherwise nothing. the one quarter still counts towards whatever GE field that its supposed to be in.</p>
<p>Which cluster are you taking? Mine was horrible first quarter, but it turned out that second and third quarter material was a lot better than first quarter, that I got used to the workload, and that my TA first quarter was one that was just so bad she only had like seven people total in her sections after the first quarter. </p>
<p>But yeah, you won't be penalized or anything, but you won't get Writing II or seminar credit out of it. If you're in honors you'll still get five units of credit (assuming you get a B or better), which fall under the category of honors master list courses.</p>
