Class load+walking distance

<p>I’m a freshman connection student.
My current class load is calculus ii, chemistry for engineer, intro psych and intro criminology.
Does this schedule seem too hard?</p>

<p>Also I want to ask current student if I can walk 10 minutes from css to TlF building?</p>

<p>Might have to walk a little swiftly but I’m fairly certain you can make it.</p>

<p>I don’t know how hard chemistry for engineering is, but I hear calc II is hard. I haven’t heard anything about intro to psych. Intro to criminology is pretty easy, I took it last semester. If you have Professor Kozey she’s really good, the only ‘difficult’ assignment was a research paper. It was only hard for me because I had to watch a bunch of episodes of The Wire and then figure out what to write about in the span of a few weeks. In other words, don’t procrastinate!!</p>

<p>Chem135 was really easy, all material covered in my sophomore year of high school honors chem class. Calc II is a pain, definitely the hardest of the 3 calc courses. Intro to psych is pretty easy, but a lot more work than people who took it as a GPA booster class expected. Several long papers for it.</p>

<p>Thanks! I would like to ask when to buy the text book?
After first day of school or now?</p>

<p>Buy now off amazon or from bookholders for chem135, since amazon isnt going to have any of the custom editions. You can wait until the first day of class to see if you really need to books, but i think you will need them for all of your classes.</p>

<p>Note however that you don’t absolutely need the custom edition. It’s just the regular edition with less content. They only leave in the chapters that you’ll be using for the class. So if you get the regular edition of the book, it’s the same thing plus a few extra chapters. Get whichever is cheaper. I second the bookholders recommendation.</p>

<p>so I don’t have have to buy the required text on the book list.
Instead, I can use the recommended one?</p>

<p>If the “recommended” one is the textbook of the same name/edition, but it’s just not the custom version, then yes, that should work just fine.</p>

<p>and more comments?</p>
