To makkuroi:
The GE program encompasses science courses in Categories III and IV. Category IV tends to be more intense. Some students like to take this sooner rather than later; many wait until their second year. I do not recommend taking this course at the same time as Writing 140, as both course require significant work.
You should know, though, that you are allowed to have one course from the GE/USC Core graded pass/no pass, and that this will not hurt your gpa. You have to choose this grading procedure within the first few weeks of the semester, but it sounds like Category IV would be a good pass/no pass category for you if you are not looking forward to it.
