5 English Classes - Will i go insane?

ure there may be core math/physics classes and basic prerequisite engineering courses that are required for being in the engineering school, but you don’t take 20 classes in your specialty area–there likely aren’t that many offered.

</p>

<p>You might, or at least very close to it. I’m an electrical engineering major. We have a core of about 7 or 8 classes, then you need 3 basic electives and 3 more ‘upper’ electives, all in electrical engineering. Adds up to a lot of classes. Given, there’s about 40 offered every semester, so there’s choices.</p>

<p>you are wrong jags…look at the engineering curriculum at a top engineering school…there are at least 3 consecutive semesters full of engineering focused classes</p>

<p>Will you go insane? No, you’ve already gone :p</p>

:D</p>

<p>QFT.</p>

<p>Also,barium, tetrahedr0n and chamilitarymayne are right about the engineering stuff. I am not an engineering major myself but a lot of my friends are.</p>

<p>Even if engineers do it doesn’t mean that it’s easy or a good idea for everyone else…</p>

<p>yes, now let me introduce you to a helpful friend named Freud…his counsel will remove all your confusion about your repressed feelings toward your mother…</p>

i don’t understand people who take so many classes in the same subject/same semester. if you know what you’re doing early enough, you should never have to take more than 2 classes in a single department in any given semester to get any sort of major.

Jags, what do you then, like what else do you take? Just random classes for fun?</p>

<p>“Jags, what do you then, like what else do you take? Just random classes for fun?”</p>

<p>Surely there has to be other core classes the student has to take. I mean I guess it depends on your major but for most liberal arts majors I don’t see why you can’t take 2-3 major classes a semester in your last 2 years and mix in some other requirements or electives in there.</p>

<p>It’s a different matter entirely if you’re trying to graduate early. I am…in the long term, my BA won’t help me in the practice of law.</p>

[BP-TheGuy88]

<p>but even then to graduate early you have to actually take more classes per semester or more credits per semester than you normally would. I’m not sure what the situation is at the school the OP goes to but at my school the Liberal Arts School students need X amount of credits to graduate (which is why most end up taking 4 classes per semester) and in the Business School you need X amount of classes to graduate (which is why most take 5 classes per semester). to take extra classes or credits you’d need to speak to the dean. and it doesn’t sound like the OP went out of his way to get into those classes so I’ll assume that he’s on track with the regular semester course/credit requirements.</p>
