Courses for Mathematics Major?

Hi all:

I just recently took the AP Calculus BC exam (yay me) and now I'm trying to figure what my next course of math classes should be.

If all goes well, I should be ready to enter Calculus III (multivariable calculus). But, my major, according to the school I'm going to, requires differential equations as well. I also need to take linear algebra to stay ahead of the game.

So what should my track be? Should I just take Calculus III and Diff. EQ at the same time in the fall?

(I'm attending Northwest Vista College in San Antonio, TX to begin earning credits for transfer)

My school recommends that you take one math class each quarter but never more than one math class. I took two this quarter and it was tough.

On the flip side, I breezed through Calc 3 and Diff Eq and would have had no problem taking them in the same semester. We are all different. Talk to your current teachers and they will have a better idea what you can or can't do.
