Right now I am registered for 18 hours, you only need 15 for a full load. Those extra three are coming from an internship.
I have the following classes.
History of Modern China – Lighter Workload
International Organizations – Little heavier load, but one less paper
Creative Writing – Average Work Load, but I am unsure of the professors grading
US History 1890-1945 – Nice class, way too much reading (which I may start skimping on). No idea of grading
American Political Process (Grad Class) – Biggest work load, and I increase it by taking notes on readings and such because the class itself is more difficult
If I were to drop anything, the likely candidate would be US History, but this history is never offered. I sort of want to learn it. Also, I could start to skimp on some of the readings and be okay I think. However, that is a bad way to approach a class.
Overall, I don’t want to “give up” but with midterms coming, and the drop deadline being Friday, I am nervous. I don’t need all of the hours that I do…but looking into my future, it doesn’t get much better.
Each of the next two semesters I will be taking a History for Major Class, and a PSC Grad Class. There is the chance that I will be taking an additional PSC Seminar. So one semester, I could end up with 2 for Major Classes, and a Grad Class. Somehow, I am thinking that is going to suck royal donkey dick. Therefore, if I tack on the extra 3 hours now, I can take less then.
All in all, getting 2 BAs and a MA in 4 1/2 years = Rough…..
