is this schedule too much?

@AroundHere physics. im not necessarily bad at math but im not an A student. a B- student is more like it. i do enjoy it sometimes, but then other times it’s so theoretical/pure that it just drags. not that i think it’s boring, because i do find math very cool. but i wish we were taught with applications to science or business or economics. it would make the math feel much more relevant to see it presented that way in the classroom rather than just pure math problems for their own sake. but unfortunately most teachers here don’t see it that way. i just think we would learn so much more if we were taught math w/ an interdisciplinary lens than just purely learn about math. plus ive never been one to enjoy doing math homework. i do enjoy physics and other math-heavy science homework though. but ironically the math homework is what tends to drive my grade and satisfaction down in math classes though.
and as for enjoying japanese…i admit that sometimes i don’t enjoy it because i dont have enough time to full devote to it so it ends up becoming a chore (memorizing stuff for a quiz, being behind on homework ect) or when the class is taught real fast that we barely have any time to use what we just learned before jumping into a new chapter that builds upon stuff (though that’s part of having enough time to devote to it outside of class)
but this was over a year ago when i had a busier schedule and im coming in again w/ fresher motivation this time.

and both classes are required as a pre-req for differential equations which is another transfer requirement (and ill be taking that next spring, which is why i need to take both linear and calc 3 at the same time in the fall. also, the 3rd physics course i need to take has those prereqs as well so if i were to take one math course at a time i wouldnt be able to take the next physics course for one semester. so i really need to do both at the same time during the fall to transfer on time (ive already spent 2 years here, this upcoming school year is my 3rd. and i absolutely refuse to spend 4 years at a community college lol)).

@MYOS1634 it’s intro to linear algebra. and yes, i can.

@Philpsych yeah that’s pretty how much how i think about it too. this semester ill have two classes per day, with a 2 hour break on two of the days and then a 9 hour break on one day and a 5 hour break on another. pretty sweet schedule imo, except for the night class but that’s japanese.
