How hard is this schedule?

<p>I am looking at taking next semester:</p>

<p>ENGR 100
EECS 280
MATH 286
MATH 217</p>

<p>But I'm concerned that that's too hard of a schedule. I am looking at going to a community college for 2 semesters to save some money, but my advisor said I might want to look at doing that this summer and next fall (as opposed to this winter and sumer as I was planning) so I won't have issues getting into ENGR 100. I'm looking for a schedule which has classes that won't transfer from the community college (Differential equations will but I want to take an honors version of it...). However, at the community college, I could take differential equations and linear algebra, and this class should be significantly easier seeing the material a 2nd time. I would also want to take linear algebra at the community college because I get transfer credit for MATH 214 for it. </p>

<p>So, any advice? Specifically how hard is that schedule, how much easier would it be if I had seen some of the material for those two classes before, and how hard is it to get into ENGR 100 as a sophomore returning from not being a student at Michigan for a semester?</p>

<p>I just noticed 286 was 3 credits, not 4. So I would want to tack on PHIL 414 as well (which is also 3 credits). </p>

<p>One thing I heard was that courses with “Math” or “Logic” in the title (and 414 is called “Math Logic”) will not count for humanities credit in some departments. Anyone know which ones?</p>

<p>And one more… Why is 286 3 credits while 216 and 256 are 4?</p>

<p>Oh, one more. Looking at the courses, maybe it would be better to take 316 instead of 286?</p>

<p>Very difficult. ENG 100 and EECS 280 are both very time consuming. Unless you’re a very good programmer, taking these two classes together would be hard. I’m not familiar with 286 or 217, but I don’t find math classes to be too time consuming in general. I would pick between 100 and 286, and then tack on PHIL 414.</p>
