<p>I remember posting a thread on this before, but I am still a bit curious, and I did not feel that I thoroughly explained my situation. </p>
<p>How possible is it for me to graduate with a BizEcon major with computing specialization, math minor, accounting minor, and Japanese or Chinese minor (not sure which to choose. I am Chinese by blood so I am a bit obligated to maintain my Chinese, but I also don't want to lose my Japanese ability) in 3 or 4 years? </p>
<p>For the BizEcon major prereqs, I clear out of everything except the econ 11, econ 101, management 1a, 1b, and the writing ii requirement. </p>
<p>I should test out of the 1-6 series in both Chinese and Japanese so there should only be 6 more classes for either the Chinese or Japanese minor. </p>
<p>Math minor is 5 upper division math courses + 32a, 33a, 33b. </p>
<p>I doubt I can clear out of the computing specialization, but it should be fairly easy since I should know most of the programming already. </p>
<p>Also, I allegedly get 13 units of priority enrollment so that should help in getting the classes I want. </p>
<p>Any chance that I can maintain a reasonable balance between academics and social life while graduating in 3 to 4 years?</p>

<p>I see, so how does management 1a, econ 11, life science 2, ge cluster, and a fiat lux seminar sound for difficulty first quarter? a friend of mine claims it is the "minimum" I should do... nicely comes out to 19 credits</p>
<p>following your friend's mentality, you might as well take cs31 also. and pledge lambdas. you know, for your social life.</p>
<p>Yea, I'm sorry to say, but your friend must be smoking something. That, or he/she's one heck of a studious person to consider that the minimum. </p>
<p>GE Clusters can be a handful just by themselves. Fiat Lux should only be taken if you need to make the 12 unit cutoff or if you genuinely have an interest in taking it. As for the rest, LS2 is a lot of memorizing. Econ11 and Mang.1A I have no idea with. Take 3 classes for your first quarter, so you can get used to the pace of the quarter system.</p>
<p>to be honest, its probably workable. i know a guy who did che 109, chem20b, chem20l, physics 1c, math 32b, math 33a, physics 4bl in one quarter. however, he had no life of any sort. he barely had time to sleep, much less party.</p>
<p>probably workable... but NOT your first quarter.
everyone says take 3 classes for a reason: your fourth "class" is called Getting Used to College 101.
seriously, just don't do it. you'll have plenty of time later on.
and clusters ARE pretty intense. so if it was four light classes, it might be doable... but not with a cluster! ;)</p>
<p>and does your friend go to UCLA? because the ABSOLUTE minimum is 13 units.
you need to take an average of 15 or more to keep your head above water.
but 19... i didn't take that many til my third quarter (16, 15, and now 21).
first quarter: three classes (14 units) and band for 2 more.
winter quarter: three classes and a fiat lux.
this quarter: four 5-unit classes and an honors section</p>
<p>...PACE YOURSELF!!! :)</p>
