How do I freaking manage a dual degree?!?!?

Major /minor makes the most sense and some suggested getting further training in graduate school.

I agree with this philosophy. My kid just finshed up freshman year and is planning one major and two minors. With a bunch of AP credits from HS, should finish in 4 years.

In my view, 18 credits in a STEM discipline is a BOATLOAD of work. Remember, you will want to meet with your professsors, GSI’s and advisors on a semi-regular or regular basis. Plus, there’s potentially math and science labs you may want and/or need to attend to keep up with classes. And of course, Saturdays in the Fall are mostly blown if you want to attend the games. And there’s bball games in the winter plus potentially Greek rush in the Winter too, if you’re interested.

Try and take it easy or easier freshman year, would be my recommendation, because it’s definitely a huge adjustment from HS.
