<p>bump----</p>
<p>note about fall/spring semester:
3.1 GPA (14 credit hours, but ALL math/science because i tested out of the 3-credit freshman english...lowest grade was B- in a geology class, but had B in chem/calc II/vector calculus, and A- in engineering class/chem lab)
next semester: 17 credit hours (mulitvariable, eng class, C++ class, Java class, linear algebra, physics/lab)
will have completed all requirements for transfer to e-school
the only reason i took so few units first semester was that i didnt have to take english, and i found out and dropped it after the add period had closed...also, i tested out of CalcI due to APs, so I had to wait to take Linear Algebra (its really dumb they way they do it)</p>
<p>someone once told me that if you can survive Tech's weed-out process, you're good to go...
any suggestions?</p>
