Course load this fall?

**DaGeek** · 08-21-2009, 08:48 PM

What're you guys' loads?

I've got seventeen credit hours, including Biology + Lab, Chem + Lab, Calc 1, Linear Algebra Intro, and Spanish.

...Gonna be a busy/painful semester. What are you guys doing?

**bravesfan007** · 08-21-2009, 10:22 PM

I'm taking two more classes for my grad school degree. I have Advanced Cost Accounting and Managerial Finance.

**mtlmouth** · 08-21-2009, 10:24 PM

16 units. General Physics, Precalculus, Intro to Engineering, US History since 1877, and Conservation of Natural Resources. It'll be a tough semester for me as well.

SccHarpGirl · 08-22-2009, 01:15 AM

I think 15 units...

Statistical methods
Statistical theory
Nonlinear Optimization

then two 1 credit seminars (Statistical consulting and then a departmental seminar)

And TAing a class, which counts for credits (?)

Should be fun!

I'll pick up another student cohort to train in the biomedical lab I work in. No course load yet, though maybe next year...

**Thrash** · 08-22-2009, 11:12 AM

15Nhours:
Greek Syntax III
Comparative World Religions
Christian Ethics
General Epistles
Biblical Interp I

tigerfan88 · 08-22-2009, 02:08 PM

16 credit hours for me:

Database Design
Data Structures & Algorithms
Object Oriented Programming in Java
Business Statistics
French I

Data Structures & Java will probably be the most difficult, but once I get this semester finished, it should be smooth sailing from here on out.

Well it's grade 12 not university but I'm pretty much loaded up:

Physics 30
Chem 20
Chem 30
Calculus 30
Math 30
English 30
Social 30
CALM 30 (Bible course)

I'm also either getting a job or taking two programming courses. If I don't get a job at the new music store opening up it's programming courses.

Going to be a busy year, but at least Calc, Physics, and the Programming courses are distance ed. so I can work ahead and finish them early.

How do you feel about distance learning? I've been hesitant even to try hybrid classes because I don't know how effective they'll be.

Well, it is my Senior year of college. With a wife of 5 years and a 2 year old boy, plus being a youth minister, plus my photography side job, plus having about 25 more elective hours than I need, I am taking it light this semester. 12 hours and an internship. Its my lightest load I've ever taken

Yay engineering! I had that history class last semester. Bleh.

15 hours - shouldn't be too bad, at least compared to the 18 I had last spring. That wasn't particularly fun.

Circuits I
Intro to Computer Engineering
General Physics II
Differential Equations

Thankfully, my History professor seems pretty cool, so that class should be interesting. Precalculus, on the other hand...

Dude, big load!!!

Man, I am glad we have some classes together! We wouldve had the Prophets together, but I decided to not take it.... Harris.... ugh.

Demon_Hunter · 08-23-2009, 09:23 AM

I feel like a wuss compared to you guys.

My course load for the fall is ridiculously light.

Im taking a Music Composition and Arranging course, which is only worth 3 credits. This was a really last minute deal (I enrolled after several... deadlines had already passed), so I couldnt afford to take any other classes (either time wise, or financially, just wouldnt have worked).

I plan to step it up in spring, and basically gradually increase my course load as I get closer to my AAS.

In spring im planning for a minimum of 9 hours, and a max of 12 depending on how finances and timing work out.

**Thrash** · 08-23-2009, 12:26 PM

I wish I was taking classes like you... I know very little about composition and theory and whatnot...
