<p>Hey guys
I'm currently a first year computer science and engineering major, and next quarter I plan on taking cs32, physics 1a, english comp3, and math 32a. I'm pretty stuck on which I should choose for my first pass. I heard that I shouldn't sign up for CS32 during my first pass, and spend it on another class in demand, since there are generally enough spots in CS32 for CS(E) majors, but then again, I heard good things about Nachenberg, and looks like there aren't as many spots open for his lecture. What other class should I use my first pass on too? I'm leaning towards physics/math. So which one should I choose between math32a and physics 1a? it looks like they have about the same number of spots. Which classes are harder to sign up for?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>physics and english comp goes pretty fast… math generally have a lot of lectures so they are pretty easy to get into, cs32 might be hard/impossible to get nachenberg during 2nd pass… i say if you want nachenberg then cs32 and physics 1a?</p>

<p>CS32 and Eng Comp 3.</p>

<p>If you want Nachenberg (and you do), you better get CS32 as your first pass.
English Comp 3 fills up quick, so get it first pass.</p>

<p>You don’t need eng comp 3. The ethics class covers the writing requirement</p>

<p>arklogic’s mistaken</p>

<p>you need eng. comp 3 for Writing I (if you did not get a 4 or 5 on one of the english APs)</p>

<p>My mistake. Forgot that AP waived the class.</p>

<p>i still would say physics, you don’t want to miss out on getting into a physics class since you need to take 1a so you can move onto 1b and 4al next quarter, if you don’t get into english comp 3 you can always take it next quarter or whenever you get in since its not a requirement for any of the engineering classes… again this is based on my memory that physics classes gets filled very fast 2 years ago and by my second pass all 3 lectures (180 each) were all filled…</p>

<p>so i already signed up for classes, but i can still change it around when my first comes by. should i enroll in polisci10 and drop my german 59 class? or are there chances that polisci10 will still have spaces left when my second pass comes around.?</p>

<p>what about chem 14b and math 3b? should i sign up for them during first pass or use my first pass for ge?</p>
