Summer and Fall 2011 courses
#1
What are you guys taking? Or might be taking?

 Spoiler

I might switch out Calc, for Stats I. Might retake Stats to get a better grade, not going to like my grade at all for my current Stats class. Big GrinDDD This time though, I went over a list of my professors and I'm extremely careful on who I pick, etc.

I'm probably going to take an online class somewhere.. not sure.

Oh joy, DBMS. I took that last semester. The teacher was kinda terrible, hope yours is better.

I'll be registering for new classes in the next week or two, and the only class I KNOW I'll be taking is Calc 2. Dunno what else atm.

Not sure, I want to delay as much as possible on the Social Studies and/or Humanities. ;_;
Probably Calculus 2 and Introductory CS 2, maybe Statistics 1 while the materials in Calc class is still easy and does not require 10 hours of homework a day.

EDIT: How does grading work out if I bomb a class and ace it (in a retake) later on? Average? Better of two?

For my university, the new grade overwrites the old (assuming you got a better grade 2nd time around), not sure what would happen if you got a lower grade.

PS: Oh, f`uck History. I had to take sh`itty History classes when I was young, up til High School, was never too interested in anything about History, unless it's technology-related. Also planning on taking Project Management really soon, probably next Spring.

This is only a wishlist. For those unfamiliar, UW-Madison gives students a good 3-4 weeks before enrollment times to pick and choose classes from the online course database and basically create a complete schedule. When individual enrollment times roll around, provided classes haven't closed all a student would have to do is click "Begin Enrolling," accept on the next page, and their wishlist becomes a reality. It's a really nice feature that takes a lot of stress out of the equation.

SO, hopefully none of these classes close and I'm all set to go!

This is how it works at Roger Williams, except it gives like 2 weeks or so to see your adviser to take off the lock that prevents enrolling. If i didn't see my adviser i could make that wishlist, i just couldn't register. I guess it makes things easier but it isn't very hard to understand. The only stress comes from realizing "oh, my school is doing all these really elaborate changes literally every semester to their curriculum so now i have to do X X and X completely differently or even not at all". >.>

50 mins on Vector Calculus per week?

Lol... Not just that, Gen. Chem III is also 50 mins / week. Odd. Back when I had community college, my 1-day-a-week classes ends up being 4-5 hours on average, and now that I'm at university, it's 3 hrs / week. I have no idea how HIS classes are 50 minutes per week, it must be intensely difficult or something...

Four is a standard, considering we're on a quarter system, and one of them is a lab class. And I value my GPA.

The class list either lists only the Discussion sections or lectures. However, most classes have both, so that first image isn't exactly accurate. The difference between lectures and discussion sections is that lectures are professor-run and discussions are TA-run.

This is my current schedule. I know the other picture says that I'm enrolled in Chem6C discussion on Monday 7pm, but I asked my teacher to artificially switch it to Wednesday 1pm.

We can't enroll in Summer Session or Fall quarter yet. I'm not even sure I want to. In the fall, I'm taking OChem 1, Electricity and Magnetism, Linear Algebra, and I'm not sure what I'm going to take for my fourth class yet. Maybe I'll take a GE, like Psychology. I'm not even sure what GEs are offered yet.

Oh, interesting how it doesn't include lab times in there. Huh! I'm also surprised that most people have more than 3+ days for college classes, I think I'm probably the only one condensing down my classes because I have to work and stuff, etc. ;____;
