<p>First of all, [USC’s</a> Senate Course Guide](<a href=“http://www.senatecourseguide.com%5DUSC’s”>http://www.senatecourseguide.com) will give you some decent opinions on classes. A new, updated version just opened, but there aren’t many reviews there yet.</p>
<p>Second question: The main difference is that in TO you taking both writing classes your freshman year. Most people will take 2 TO classes for each semester freshman year, then spread the rest around. The rest of your courses depend on your major, if you wave any of the language requirements, and many other things.</p>
<p>The important thing, though, is that you really don’t need to worry about all of this now. There are tons of people here at SC whose job it is to work you through this. I know that I didn’t see a list of classes until I arrived for orientation, and I turned out fine. It will all work out.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, and the cinema class you talked about is Cinema 466, which is already full for next semester. I get to take it next year for fun (I’ll be a senior). Generally, you take that one later on in your USC education.</p>
