Kind of worried about my work load next semester (new Carlson transfer)

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Minnesota

<p>So, I was recently accepted as a junior transfer into Carlson.<br>
I know that recruiting season for internships is in the Fall, which I assume makes Fall semester a busy and stressful time. How time consuming/stressful is the internship hunt?</p>

<p>As for my classes, I'm taking:
SCO 3001: I have this with Thomas Buchner, who I hear makes near impossible tests
FINA 3001: Not worries about this, although I hear it's fairly hard
MGMT 3004: Out of the three professors for this class, I have Anne Cohen, who is apparently incredibly egotistical and makes the class way harder than it should be. And she's teaching all this sections in the Fall, so there's no way around it.
MKTG 3010: I've heard Marketing Research is really hard and time consuming
IDSC 3101/3102: The two programming courses - again, I hear they're hard and time consuming</p>

<p>So, am I overloading myself for the Fall or will this be manageable? Any specific advice on these classes / professors / the internship hunt would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>I am worried as well. I transferred into CSE for Fall '13 from a local CC. While signing up for courses with my adviser I thought I would be okay - only 16 credits. This feeling of content faded when my adviser said something along the lines “3 lab courses, you are going to be extremely busy.” Wanting to show no fear I said “sometimes you have to work hard.” He simply smiled and nod.</p>

<p>I am kind of a sophomore/junior hybrid so I will not be pursuing internships, I wish you best of luck there.</p>

<p>I know our situations aren’t exactly similar and my post was not that helpful. But if nothing else, I hope you get comfort in knowing you aren’t the only one who is nervous for this Fall semester. </p>

<p>I was hoping to find a job on campus and join a “club,” we’ll see if time allows for those to transpire.</p>

<p>Same here… transferred to CSE and not sure how i’ll be handling the workload because I’m also kinda like sophomore and junior combo too. We’ll see how the first semester goes.</p>
