<p>I’m not planning on it however after a year however I am planning on transferring.</p>

<p>I’m just merely asking how my first semester looks case wise on such a record.</p>

<p>how did you do in them</p>

<p>^Uh, I don’t think he’s taken them yet…</p>

<p>To me, it looks like a typical first semester schedule. Nothing jumps out at me as particularly noteworthy, special, or bad.</p>

<p>Does anyone think that is course load is too big?</p>

<p>It looks typical…</p>
