History of Architecture</p>
<p>I’m planning on joining the honor’s college next semester. If I did that, my second semester schedule would probably look like</p>
<p>Honors World Literature I
Honors World History II
Physics I
Honors Political Economy
Survey of U.S. History I (departmental elective)</p>
<p>Does this seem rigorous enough for a History // PolySci double major who dreams of attending a prestigious grad school? (Princeton has always been the dream)</p>
<p>Every school is different. At my school, most classes are four credits each. The average student takes 4 classes, 16 credits per semester. From my perspective, taking five classes during the first semester at college seems a little daunting. But, it sounds like you’re motivated 
My question is- why are you taking Calc II and Physics as a History/Poly Sci major? Is it part of your college’s requirements?</p>
<p>What’s the point of taking regular World History II then an Honors section of the same course?</p>
<p>Also, are you really following your major’s prerequisites and class requirements? Have you thought of exchanging that Calculus class for something more relevant like anthropology/sociology?</p>
<p>It looks okay for a first semester. You could probably do with one less class, depending on the number of units and overall schedule. You just have to be focused being well rounded for grad school. Honors is a start, but you should get clubs/internships/research.</p>

<p>Calculus is always relevant. You’ll need it for stat and data analysis. It’s also intellectually interesting. You’ll need it later in life, for job switching, for where the social sciences intersect with the natural sciences, engineering, or economics.</p>
