Is my schedule too hard?

<p>This is my schedule for my first semester at Uconn. I obviously dont know the difficulty of these classes so I was hoping someone with some prior knowledge could help me judge the difficulty level.
I want my schedule fairly easy because I want to create a "gpa cushion" and have my gpa for my first semester be as high as possible.</p>

<p>ENGL1010 - Seminar in Academic Writing
INTD1800 - University Learning Skills
Math1131Q - Calculus I
Psyc110 - General Psychology
Chem1127Q - General Chemistry</p>

<p>Also ... I'm pretty bad at Chemistry</p>

<p>Your intended major?</p>

<p>If you are bad at chemistry, then any major requiring a lot of chemistry (which means chemistry, chemical engineering, or any type of biology) is likely to be difficult for you. So will doing pre-med, regardless of major.</p>

<p>I’m not exactly bad at Chemistry … just in comparison to my other classes. Live I’ve always gotten high 90s in everything in high school but in Chemistry I got 80s, but that’s also without me ever opening a book … thats why I dont really know how to judge the difficulty level of college chem.
And I’m going to be a bio major doing pre-med.</p>

<p>That’s odd that as a biology major they didn’t put you into any biology classes.
I don’t think your schedule is that hard, it will just take some work, as will any schedule. As a fellow biology and pre-med major, our schedules are pretty similar, except i’m not taking an english and will be taking a bio course. I think you’ll do fine!</p>

<p>Well I took Ap Bio so I tested out of the first 2 bio classes, and the next level I was going to take was full.
Do you think it would be too much if I added an Economics class on top of this ?</p>

<p>From what I see, your schedule looks really easy. General Psych is a joke, Intro English courses aren’t that hard either, the only thing that might give you a challenege is either calc 1 or Gen. Chem, but even then its not super hard. A intro to microecon or macroecon. isn’t that hard either, so you can add that if you want. Getting general education courses out of the way is a good idea.</p>

<p>Psychology - Joke.
Calculus - If you’ve got solid algebra skills, joke. If you don’t it might be hard.
Chemistry - Since you’ve seen the subject before it’ll be easy.
English - Easy.
Economics - Epic win.</p>

<p>Looks about as easy as you could get, you’ll be fine!</p>
