<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am an admitted student and plan to attend next year. I was hoping you all could answer a few questions.</p>

<p>I plan to major in physics and computer science. I want to take physics 14 sequence and calculus 16 sequence my freshman year. Does anybody know how placement works for those courses, how hard it is, and what should be known beforehand.</p>

<p>Secondly, for my computer science major, I would like to take the 16000 honors intro sequence. I would like to do so my freshman year, but it seems possible that doing so in addition to honors physics and calculus would be to much. Anyone know how hard this sequence is? If I do not take it my first year, I will make my best attempt to audit the 1500 sequence, take the core, and take the 1600 courses as a sophomore.</p>

<p>If any of y'all could help me, please do! Thank you very much!</p>

<p>Firstly, I think there are actually time issues with registering in 160s cs and 140s physics at the same time, as in they both are MWF at 9:30 and have only 1 section.</p>

<p>As to workload, I know a lot of people who do it, and I know several who are managing 140s and analysis fairly well.</p>

<p>Hello Davorin,</p>

<p>Okay, I guess I will not be taking both. I may take the CS 1500 sequence my freshman year as preparation for the major. Do you know whether it prepares you any differently for the further CS courses?</p>

<p>Dont know cs 160s but 140s physics and honors calculus are just joke</p>
