Hi, I currently go to Reed College and I want to take summer classes at UCI. What would be a good amount of classes it for me to take? I really want to have a rigorous class schedule so I can improve my studying habits and scheduling.
I would check with Reed College to figure which UCI courses are transferable unless you do not want the credit and then go from there.
@Gumbymom Do you know a good course load to take? I personally don’t really care about the credits, but most likely I will go to the registrar to ask them what credits do transfer over and probably limit my choices down to the ones that do transfer over. I really just want to improve my study habits and time managements skills while learning as much as I possibly can.
A good course load depends upon your academic strengths. UCI has 6 week and 10 week courses so it will depend upon which type of courses you are interested in taking. A 6 week course will be pretty intensive since the amount of a material will be condensed. I would probably take no more than 2-3 6 week courses for the Summer Session. If you take the 10 week courses, then you might consider 3-4 courses. Both type of courses will be very fast paced so you really need to be on top of things from day one.
