computer programming before engineering

<p>To Engineering Majors, have any of you AP’d out of Calc I?</p>

<p>Our friend at Auburn who is MechE AP’d out of Calc I and said it was a huge auditorium class with 300 kids and mostly theory.</p>

<p>We’d rather son not AP out of math/science classes, since he’ll be a BME major, but are wondering if the Calc I class is a big auditorium class at Marquette.</p>

<p>Also, what about Chemistry and Biology and Physics, first year, are those big classes as well? </p>

<p>Auburn is 23K, and Marquette is probably half the size, so I know the two are not comparable in size, but since Marquette has such a great engineering program, I was wondering if that’s a full major where there’s too many kids for the intro classes to have small classes. Do you think it’s worth joining the honors program to get first dibs on scheduling and smaller classes, or are the smaller classes only in core courses, not courses for your major (bio, chem, calc, physics)?</p>

<p>Thanks for any insight.</p>
