<p>So basically I screwed up and I'm didn't take MMW first quarter. Should I take it out of order? I read that you can sign up for the MMW classes out of order as long as they aren't MMW 14-16. I'm worried that it may be very difficult. Has anyone done this?</p>
<p>Well the only difficult thing I could think about is the essays.
In MMW 11 there are no essays.
In MMW 12 you write three essays (pretty short essays and sources come from the assigned readings)
In MMW 13 you go through your first research paper, and the TAs spend a decent amount of time (compared to say MMW 14 or 15 where they go through the “instructing part” much quicker)
In MMW 14 and 15 you write research papers (1 per course), but like i said, they don’t really instruct you on what a prospectus looks like or anything They just tell you what to have and what it should look lik, not really in depth because they think you already took mmw 13.</p>
<p>it’s not hard but as said above ^ you should probably take 2 before any of 3, 4, or 5. That is, you should take 12 before 13-15. The order of 11 and 13-15 doesn’t matter imo, but if possible I would recommend taking 12 and 13 first. it really doesn’t matter when you take 11.</p>
<p>If you are good at writing, you shouldn’t have a problem.</p>
<p>if you take mmw with chang its pretty easy. even better if you take it over the summer, the TA’s dont grade that harshly.</p>
