No idea of grading<br \/>\nAmerican Political Process (Grad Class) &#8211; Biggest work load, and I increase it by taking notes on readings and such because the class itself is more difficult<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I don&#8217;t want to &#8220;give up&#8221; but with midterms coming, and the drop deadline being Friday, I am nervous.  I don&#8217;t need all of the hours that I do&#8230;but looking into my future, it doesn&#8217;t get much better.<\/p>\n<p>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.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, getting 2 BAs and a MA in 4 1\/2 years = Rough&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>\/whine<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Right now I am registered for 18 hours, you only need 15 for a full load.
