Outlier, isn't it kinda hard (due to credit limit) to take all 3 of those coruses the first term?

I'm personally planning on just 18.701 first term (also taking 8.05, 5.13 and HASS-D, so I only have room for one math course), and then 18.702 and 18.100B second term.

Then, fall of soph year, I'll do 18.101 and 18.901.

Things to note: 18.101 seems to only be offered in the fall, so 18.100B in the spring seems like a good idea.

18.100B is a prereq to 18.901, so I guess I should take 18.901 at the same time as 18.101, namely fall of sophomore year. Also, fall seems good, since Munkres teaches it then (I've been told this by a current MIT student).

Yes, I realize that 18.701 also has 18.100B as a "prereq," but I've already taken algebra at a local state college, so starting with it seems to make sense (I'm not trying to get transfer credit for 18.701, although it's maybe possible).
