<p>newmassdad,
I’m taking Math199 with the intention of taking analysis.

-I was planning on getting a Classics minor/major to find some way to challenge myself, but after taking a year of Accelerated Latin, I realized that the Classics department had watered down their courses to a laughably low standard.
-Yes, I have taken 4 classes every quarter I’ve been here, and have taken summer classes every year as well.
-I am taking a GSB class right now.</p>
