<p>I just got accepted into ILR as a transfer, non-gt. Yeah!</p>

<p>In an effort to better associate myself with Cornell, Ithaca, and the students, I am heavily considering taking out the loans to take a class or two during the summer. It will probably consist of Calculus 1 and a possibly prereq. I do have some questions though.</p>

<p>Will it be difficult to complete these courses over the summer? I am worried about my GPA as I go into these courses. I fair well in math and I am excellent in social science. Do you guys believe it's worth it?</p>

<p>I can also just take calculus/a prereq at my current CC and do an internship...but I really want to be catch up and be able to take advantage of the opportunity. </p>

<p>Thoughts on your own personal experience or that of others?</p>

<p>well...depending on the intensity of your HS and 1st college...you may need to take some time to adjust to Cornell. Summer courses prob wouldn't be the way to do b/c it will be intense..you have a lot to learn in a short amount of time.</p>

<p>For this reason...I would advise against taking summer courses now. If you want to get to know Cornell and Ithaca...come visit for a weekend. Summer is a beautiful time up here!</p>
