Need help on making freshman schedule...

<p>It's Education 92F. Barbee is a very nice man and only says encouraging things in his conversations. He can give you advice (though you'd probably go to someone else, unless you're completely lost in life).</p>

<p>If you need confidence and really feel like you need a bridge from high school to college, then take the class. There is very little work involved, and the class difficulty and setting is probably at the freshman HS level (only in my opinion, and it's the way the class is structured .. similar to AVID or pathways but with different content).</p>

<p>I took it with a friend last year and we thought it was the lamest class ever since we were treated like high schoolers, but it was an easy class.</p>

<p>Ok, I’ve finally come up with a “rough-draft” schedule (yay!). But I need some help on deciding which classes and professors I should get:</p>

<ul>
<li><p>Math 3A (Popa, Dai, or Weinstein?)
I'm still considering math 31A... I don't even know why, cause pre-meds should take math 3A for the GPA boost... I got an A for both semesters of AP Calc AB in high school and I got a 4 on the AP exam... Does anyone know the difference between math 3A and math 31A?</p></li>
<li><p>LS 1 (Pires?)
I'm planning to start the LS series early on so I can find out which area of science I'm more interested in (and so I can hopefully get an idea of what major I'm going into). But at the same time, wouldn't chem 14A and math be a better pair? </p></li>
<li><p>GE course (I will decide on that...)</p></li>
</ul>

<p>I'm planning on spreading my GE's, foreign language requirements, and College of LS requirements throughout my 4 years in college (cause from what I've read, I think the majority of people have been suggesting that pre-meds should do that so they won't get loaded with a bunch of science courses each quarter). I think most of my GE courses will consist of easy, interesting classes: art, DESMA, philosophy, neuroscience, possibly music... I'm still on the process of overlapping them with the Honors courses.</p>

<p>But nevertheless, any advice would be good ^^. Thank you for spending your time to read this (sorry my posts are always long =.=)</p>

<p>when is your orientation? cuz pires is already 179/216...</p>

<p>chem 14A, however, has a whopping 1200 spots. i think you'd get one lol.</p>

<p>i can't help you with the math. but at least both 3A and 31A are wide open ;)</p>

<p>if you need help figuring out GE courses that fit in your schedule, go here Schedule</a> of Classes General Education (GE) Search and pick a foundation category (but not science). it'll also tell you how full classes are so you know how likely you are to get in by your orientation.</p>

<p>To liyana179:</p>

<p>I have orientation session 103, which will be in a couple of days... hopefully there's still space for Pires...</p>

<p>Thanks for the link, it's really helpful! I wish I had found it earlier lol :)</p>
