![]() ![]() This is a really uncertain time in my life. I know this was a huge block of text, and thank you for reading through it. If I drop Phys 211 and pursue my double CS schedule, I can apply for transfer earlier, and hopefully keep future physics scores out of the equation (just in case). Physics is the real wild card.įurther more, If I get a B in Calc 2 and 3, and go ahead with the CS classes (assuming As because thats what I absolutely need), then when it comes time to transfer, I'd be at 3.77 which gives me a good shot at transferring. Requirements include As in 173 and 225 (Which I'm confident I can pull off), a 3.67 GPA (Which is where I start to get nervous) and nothing lower than a B in technical classes (See why Physics is starting to scare me?).Īs it is, I can count on 5 A's (CS, Gen Ed, Mus, LAS 101 and CS 100), and I can assume 1-2 Bs (The two calcs). I'm an LAS CS major wishing to get into ENG (To focus solely on CS, which is my passion). I really can't plan beyond that due to the uncertainty of the situation Phys 211 (retake) / Phys 212 (depending on final semester grade) Astro 210 (If I'm denied a transfer, as noted later) Math 231E (Regrade) / Math 241 depending on final semester grade for the Fall CS 225 (Been told by several people this is a good idea, feel free to leave your take as some people have offered conflicting views) My plan for the future should I drop would be this:. This would place me at 16 credit hours, which I guess is pretty healthy for a Freshman. I have a class I'm taking for 1 credit (Mus) but can be taken for up to 3 credits (If I can get the approval at this stage). I was considering dropping Phys 211 for now. I'm at 18 credit hours currently (CS 125, Math 231E being the other big ones) and I'm falling behind in Math (not as badly though).Īs it is right now, if I applied the 3:1 rule and devoted every second of free time (with 2am bedtime), including weekends, to studying, I'd still be 6-12 hours behind where I should be. This is as much to do with a real lack of time in addition to the difficultly of the problems. Homework wise, I've gotten scores between 70%-100%, but most lie in the 75%-85% range. I've only had to take 1 of the 3 quizzes so far (excused absences), but I got a pretty poor score on that one as well. So while I was consistently getting C's on the practice exams, this one wasn't quite as good. All the problems I studied in depth (Gravitation, Spring based problems) were no shows and the questions that made it to the test, for the most part, I had not seen on any of the practice exams.

Then as you do this mark off concepts you feel you have thoroughly ingrained in your intuition which you can tell because you'll start to get those questions correct. Write the notes as if you're talking to a person, and explain concepts as simply as you can so that almost anyone could get it. When you go through the tests and hit any spot you're even just a little unsure, write down the concept and look it up and write detailed notes on it. Not necessarily all the tests because you neither have that kind of life and as you go back in test years the test style changes and becomes irrelevant. I also got a perfect score on my first test in 102 by doing previous exams and all the practice problems given. Many of the concepts overlap in test, and some problems are the exact same with just numbers changed. ![]() The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign ![]()
