<p>Hi guys, </p>
<p>Can I get your thoughts on my tentative schedule for fall? The reason I'm asking is because I'm concerned about the course load. </p>
<p>STATS 220
GEOG 205
COM 201* </p>
<p>One of the reasons I'm worried is because I haven't taken a math class in three years and I've never taken statistics. My major needs a few more math classes, and I was thinking about taking statistics down the line as far as I need in order to fulfill the requirement. I would go back to algebra, but I don't remember a lot of it.
I'm also worried about the course load because I'm thinking about applying for an internship that requires about 25 hours per week. I really don't want to pass it up because it seems like a great fit, and it's paid. Also, I'm working right now, but I'm not lined up for another job when I move. I'm a little nervous about that. </p>
<p>Any thoughts/comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! </p>
<p>*I'm hoping to switch this out with an English class, if possible.</p>
<p>If you were decent to good at math and just need a refresher, I’d HIGHLY recommend going through the exercises (and videos) on khanacademy.org. I hadn’t done anything more advanced than figuring out overtime pay in over ten years, and managed to place straight into Calculus after a couple months of starting at the very beginning and working my way through.</p>
<p>Com classes were super easy for me, but getting any English out of the way early is a good idea. Are you planning on working on top of the internship?</p>
<p>Thank you so much for the reply! </p>
<p>I’d say I’m decent at math, but it’s not my strong suit. I’d definitely have my work cut out for me if I wanted to start in UW’s Math 111. The last math class I took (in 2010) transferred as Math 098. So, that’s sort of the background that hopefully explains a little about why I’m conflicted. </p>
<p>I think I’ll look at khanacademy.org. Thanks!
I was also thinking of ordering my textbook early when it arrives at the bookstore in about a week. That will give me about six weeks to get familiar with the material, assuming I don’t procrastinate or forget to do it, ha 
</p>
<p>Wow, that’s pretty impressive. Nice work! </p>
<p>Thanks for the tip. According to the DARS system, I think I’m missing one more 5 credit English course. It’d be nice to cross it off the to-do list </p>
<p>No, I won’t be working with the internship. I think it’d be too much for me to take on right now. If I do land the internship, I’m hoping to work after the internship is completed. The internship is about 4-6 months. </p>
<p>Again, thank you for all your help!</p>
