Summer Sessions -- classes advice?

<p>Hey, I was wondering what course I could take in tandem with CS61BL (4 units). I am looking for a course that would:</p>

<p>-put me at least two more units (for a total of 6 units...gotta get that financial aid cut)
-has a fairly flexible schedule, and attendance is only occasionally required
-fulfills some sort of breadth, RC or AC req</p>

<p>Any ideas out there? Maybe an R1B course?</p>

<p>hmm. anthro 2ac or 3ac?</p>

<p>most of the R&C courses are full now i believe.</p>

<p>What is your major? It will help us advise you.</p>

<p>If you’re a CS major and up to it, one thing to finish might be a discrete math course – you want that if you’re going for anything that requires CS 70.</p>

<p>Hey all,</p>

<p>Oh I left out the most important detail: I am an intended L&S CS major. I was also wondering if taking classes from different sessions (A, B, C) is favorable or not.</p>

<p>@mathboy98: is cs 70 a rather difficult course in the summer? Should it be taken with 61bl? Your advice is greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>**Whoops: there is not a cs 70 course in the summer, according to the online schedule.</p>

<p>Actually, CS 70 is never offered during summers, I think – it’s always the math department equivalent, Math 55. CS 70 might certainly be a bit better for you…but honestly, if you want to get to courses like CS 170, Math 55 will serve you just fine. </p>

<p>Math 55 + 61B is a FULL course load, and it’ll involve your needing to be excited to do the work. If not, that’ll just ruin your summer + burn you out, so judge for yourself! The only reason I suggested it is that courses (that’re supposed to be pretty interesting) like CS 170 open up if you do this…</p>

<p>Hmm, that sounds like a ton of work that I am just not ready for. Thanks for the advice though, mathboy.</p>

<p>Instead, I signed up for 61bl + mcb n61. I checked, and it looks like mcb n61 fulfills the bio breadth. The catalog description looks pretty cool too. Props?</p>

<p>That’s probably a healthier load. Breadth + core course. I know CS lab courses are probably pretty insanely work-intensive. </p>

<p>Try to take CS 70 as soon as you can, however! You’ll probably enjoy it, and it leads to good stuff.</p>

<p>music 21(A)? i thin it’s a 2 unit class-you have to sing though :P</p>

<p>I’m doing the first six week session. currently signed up for german r5b, ib117 and ib117l. should i leave it like that or drop ib117l and take nst10?</p>

<p>Help, I have a question!</p>

<p>I already have 2 courses added for summer. One is a 3 unit course, and the other is a 4 unit course.</p>

<p>I would like to trade the 4 unit course for a DIFFERENT 4 unit course.</p>

<p>Can I do this? Will Telebears charge me?
Help?</p>

<p>Oh and if they charge, how much?</p>

<p>yeah I hate being a pest but it’s urgent. bump!</p>

<p>Just look at the summer.berkeley.edu site. Took me all of two minutes to find the answer.</p>

<p>Yes, you can use telebears to drop the class you don’t want and then since you have course unit ‘credits’, you can add a replacement class. All without fee. </p>

<p>you drop courses until the end of the first week of classes for no charge. Just add the new class and drop the old class, there will be no problem.</p>

<p>How is Classics 28 with Bulloch in the summer? It doesn’t appear to have a discussion/GSIs…</p>

<p>I’m considering taking Classics 28 and MCB 102 for 8 units total + working in a lab 20-30 hours/week. Manageable?</p>

<p>I need 6 units of class in order to get financial aid.</p>

<p>Pretty much all Classics courses are easy. Most undergraduate courses titled Classics are jokes. They are meant for Classical Civilizations majors and people looking for breadth requirements.</p>

<p>One of my friends is taking that class this semester and he says it is pretty chill.</p>

<p>Would taking 9 units in session A not be a good idea?
German r5b
ib117
Nst 10</p>

<p>9 units in session A is suicide.</p>

<p>9 unit session A is like a 24 unit semester</p>

<p>oh shoot…
*** am i doing. -.- k im gonna only take german r5b and ib117.</p>
