Your schedule for fall!

<p>Hey!</p>

<p>So what's everyone chosen schedule for Fall? (if you've gone to Orientation OR your ideal schedule)</p>

<p>I'm going June13-14 to Orientation (:</p>

<p>Going to the June 13-14 orientation with my friend. I’ve been making up her schedule for her also. lol.
This is what I hope I’ll be taking:</p>

<p>FALL 2011

  1. ANT 2000 General Anthropology
  • GROFF, Amanda (CL1 0121) Tu/Th 10:30AM - 11:45AM
  1. ENC 1101 Composition I
  2. ARH 2050 History of Western Art I
  • ZAHO, Margaret (COMM 0101) Mo/Wed/Fri 3:30PM-4:20PM
  1. AST 2002 Astronomy
  • COONEY, James (MAP0260) Tu/Thu 1:30PM-2:45PM</p>

<p>I’ve got my schedule for spring planned out also. If anyone has any opinions on the teachers go ahead and tell me. I tried to research them to the best of my abilities lol.</p>

<p>Thanks for the reminder – I guess I should try to organize a preliminary schedule before orientation!</p>

<p>Willing to bet a lot of stuff is already full… My walk from the dorm to the math, sciences, and engineering buildings is 0.8 miles. Not really looking forward to making this trek a dozen times a week… at least it’s exercise!</p>

<p>Astronomy with Cooney = not easy.</p>

<p>Unfortunately he is the only open class at the moment…theres Montgomery too but she has horrible ratings according to ratemyprofessors.com :confused:
Is there something about it that made it harder, or just a lot of assignments ect.?</p>

<p>If a professor has a fair chunk of ratings/reviews on ratemyprofessor.com, you can usually get a good feel for their pros/cons by reading over what everyone has to say. It’s important to take their overall rating at face value, though. The professor I had for a few of my math classes has a relatively low rating, but I felt he was great, and provided me with excellent foundation for calculus. Most people rated him poorly, seemingly out of spite, since they didn’t do well in his class (your final grade was derived solely from three tests and the final.)</p>

<p>I’m starting in the Summer B session. I plan on taking Composition 2 (Thank you AP Lang, gonna get that credit over with) and Cinema Survey. I was planning on taking Astronomy but now I’m a little worried to hear things like that about the professor.</p>

<p>Well I haven’t gone to Orientation yet, but have looked around at classes and stuff.
Two classes I’m pretty sure I’ll be taking (at the Rosen campus) are:
AST 2002-Astronomy (Tu/Th 10:30am-11:45am) with James Cooney lol
HFT 1000-Intro to Hospitality (Tu/Th 12pm-1:15pm) with Deborah Weissberg</p>

<p>After on Mo/We/Fri I want to take 3 classes at main, hopefully Composition 1, and then two others GE classes</p>

<p>Cinema survey was such a fun and easy class :smiley: If you’re taking Eng. Lit, try to take it with Professor Frongillo if you see an opening for his class! Took him last semester and loved it! Almost guaranteed an ‘A’ or a ‘B’ if you attend class and do your stuff!</p>

<p>Cinema Survey (Jesse Wolfe-if he’s teaching it) and Intro to Hosp (Dr. Ross or Smith)are both good choices. Anthropology, Human Species, or a History class would be good.
Astronomy is NOT an easy subject. Most people I know walked in thinking it was a breeze and came out barely passing or taking it over. Cooney was not at all helpful, not specific for the lecture. Valencia actually offers it with a better instructor.
If possible wait until fall to take that with your other courses. You don’t want it to be one of the only 2 grades determining your GPA from the start. JMO.</p>

<p>I have orientation 9/10 June since I’m in honors college. Here are the classes I plan to take: Human Species (Long)
SPC 1608 Speech (Butler)
Stats 2023 (Schott)
PSY 2012 Honors (? just says ‘staff’)
I also have to take the Honors symposium which meets 2 days a week, I think.</p>

<p>Would appreciate input on the classes and instructors. This will be my first semester but I should have about 32 credits from AP, so most of my gen eds will be out of the way.</p>

<p>I’ll be taking Astronomy for Fall with other classes (with prof Cooney). Any tips on passing with an A or B?</p>
