Hi everyone, I finished the enrollment a few days ago. I ended up with 2 3000+ courses, 2 2000+ courses and 1 1000+ course without the FWS.
Link to my schedule: Schedulizer: Fall '09

I do not know if my schedule is suicidal as I described because I do not know what others' schedules are like. I do not know how hard it is to handle a schedule like this. Whereas, to me, I consider this schedule as an easy schedule. For the 5 courses I have chosen, I have taken Linear Algebra and Financial Accounting at Harvard Extension School, AP Economics, AP Psychology and AP Statistics at my high school. Basically, I have taken four (or 3, if ECON 3190 - intro to statistics and probability is fundamentally different than AP statistics) out of the 5 courses - the only new course for me is intermediate microeconomics. I also have a really strong background at mathematics and economics because I am doing competitions for both subjects.

Is my schedule suicidal or easy? Do you think I can get a good GPA if I try hard? Thank you a lot for reading.

if you think you can do it, then do it, but know that you are way ahead of most freshmen

It is ambitious, but feasible if you're well-enough prepared, and there certainly isn't harm in being enrolled for these classes and dropping one if need be. What are your plans/intended major?

It really doesn't seem that bad compared to mine o_O

I want to do a double-major in mathematics and economics. Meanwhile, I want to take enough courses in AEM because I probably will do international business or management in the future.

It's your schedule, dude. If you feel that you can do it, then go for it.

The only thing I want to mention is lunch time. When are you going to eat? For me, I typically eat a late lunch, but it might be different for you. Perhaps, an early lunch?

Good luck.

Hey!

I'm currently a student at Cornell. Welcome! =]

I think whether or not your schedule is appropriate depends entirely on how well you handle your courseload. You can test it out for the first week, and then adjust your schedule if you feel it's overwhelming. Just keep in mind that the first week of classes is almost always easy and not representative of the rest of the semester; so read the syllabus for each class carefully to determine whether or not you will be able to perform satisfactorily in all of your classes. Another important thing to remember is that you should never jeopardize your GPA for a few extra credits because it's just not worth it. Hopefully those tips will be somewhat helpful!

Good luck and take care!
P.S. Enjoy the weather here...I know I do. :P
