<p>I'm a freshman in the MCS department and I want to transfer to SCS. My schedule for Fall 2010 was:</p>
<p>21-120 Differential and Integral Calculus
76-101 Interpretation and Argument
09-105 Introduction to Modern Chemistry I
15-110 Principles of Computing
99-102 Computing @ Carnegie Mellon
15-190 Topics in Intermediate Programming</p>
<p>and my proposed schedule for Spring 2011 is:</p>
<p>21-122 Integration, Differential Equations and Approximation
21-127 Concepts of Mathematics
85-221 Principles of Child Development
15-122 Principles of Imperative Computation
98-127 StuCo: Game Design in Processing
09-106 Introduction to Modern Chemistry II</p>
<p>I'm wondering if I should add another class that will help me transfer into SCS or ease the transfer since I haven't taken many classes required for a SCS degree. I looked at the SCS curriculum and wanted to complete the engineering/science lab requirement, however all the labs cannot fit into my schedule or I have completed the necessary prerequisites. So is this current schedule okay or does anyone have any suggestions of a class I should add? </p>
<p>I know this is kind of last minute, but I didn't fully make up my mind to transfer until the end of last semester. Any input would help :) Thanks!!</p>
<p>You cannot even be considered until you take 21-127 and whatever new course is replacing 15-211 (I think it’s 210??)</p>
<p>To take 210 , you need to take 122 and 150 first.
So take 122, then 150, then 251 and apply next Spring.</p>
<p>Concepts and 122 are going to be incredible time sinks this semester-- can you also handle the science lab at the same time? If not, consider getting another GE (on the approved list for SCS) out of the way instead.
If you are that solid at math-- consider Matrix Aleg this semester instead of Chem. Teacher sucks however.</p>
<p>Here’s the experiment from the Fall - first time it was offered.</p>
<p>S and friends enjoyed it-- but the promised transition to C was not completed and hence, they are not ready for 213 as promised. This detail to be worked out “later”…most freshman were not happy.</p>
<p>Upperclassmen can chime in on 122 vs. 123 and the C-not vs. C languages</p>
<p>As someone who’s taken 15-122, thought I would weigh in. We did do our final homeworks and term projects in C, but I agree that not enough time was given to C versus C0 (which is a safe version of C with no memory managment). It will prepare you for 15-150, the new function programming class, very well though (122 gets you you used to invariants, proofs about code, etc)</p>
