Freshman Schedule

<p>This is what I was thinking as of now and assuming I get in it ends up working well for timing (2 classes a day except Tuesdays where there's one)</p>

<p>Physics 1116
PE 1410 (Intro to Message)
Intro to Psych
Math 1890 (it's a writing seminar)
Intro to Italian</p>

<p>I think it ends up being 15 credits. Is this manageable or am I going to need to make adjustments?</p>

<p>*massage haha</p>

<p>Yeah, it’s definitely manageable. 1890 should be a bit different than you might expect though, and the guy told me he’s only given out 1 A+ a few semesters ago, so if you’re looking for a A+, take some other class. But, the class was very enlightening if you’re willing to put in the work.</p>

<p>That Italian class is probably going to take up a fair bit of your time, but the schedule is definitely manageable.</p>

<p>@wong thanks for the typo hahahhaha, I’m not looking for the A+ it just seemed interesting to me</p>

<p>@islander yeah I figured it was going to but that’s fine, I’m actually really interested in learning the language since I visited there. I also have about 4 years of Latin under my belt and I heard they were sort of similar so that should help :)</p>

<p>Looks nice, but…if you’re a Physics (?) or Engr major, why not throw in a math class in there?</p>

<p>Well I’m sort of confused on which I’m supposed to take. I think its Linear.</p>

<p>^no AP track is 1910, 1920.</p>

<p>Then depending on your major, 2930 (differential eq) and/or 2940 (linear alg) </p>

<p>and then some majors also “math elective” which ENGRD 2700 (stats) is popular. </p>

<p>The math track is also supposed to be 1 per semester but some choose to do a combination of the last three in two semesters instead.</p>

<p>So I take 1910, 1920 even if I got a 5 on BC?</p>

<p>1110 and 1120 are AP’s… 1920 is multivariable for engineers.</p>

<p>woops… what i mentioned only applies to engineers without AP credits.</p>

<p>On the other thread people said 1920 is that what I should take? or because I’m physics would it be better if I did linear (2210) then 2220</p>

<p>if you’re physics in CAS, then 1920 or 2220 (they’re both multivariable calculus classes, although 1920 is more popular among physics majors) is the way to go. When I took 1116, a lot of my classmates were either in 1920 or 2220 at the same time. You can take Linear Algebra first if you want (you’re in CAS so you have more flexibility), but Multivariable is going to help a lot more for Phys 2213 or Phys 2217 (Physics II: E/M)</p>

<p>Okay thanks :)</p>

<p>Any recommendations on writing class for incoming freshman? Something on an easy side to balance harder classes in the schedule, but should be able to apply to ASM writing requirements.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>The problem with recommendations on FWS classes is that the instructors may change and that can impact the easiness/hardness of the class. Also, the student is limited by what classes will fit into their schedule. My daughter made up a schedule on Schedulizer and then looked for FWS classes that were available during her open times and ranked the 5 most interesting classes from there. She tried to look up info on the instructors, but I don’t think she found any on the one she ended up with. It didn’t turn out ideal - she did not get her first choice, but she managed somehow.</p>
