I’m gonna have to end up taking 20 credits, for my first semester as a freshman at Michigan State University. The classes I am taking are Intermediate Algebra, Bio, Chem, Japanese, and a stupid class called integrative social studies that is a required. It ends up coming up to 20 credits. And I don’t think I can find any other way of doing it. I am premed so I have to take bio and chem, and math. And if I don’t take Japanese every semester I won’t graduate on time. And I have to take that required class.

Do you think I am screwing myself over and I should find a way out of this.

I think I might be able to handle it because the reason I tested into intermediate algebra is because I took the test online 5 minutes before it was its deadline and I had not had math in a year so I was rusty. I went over it again and with time it is pretty easy but I really don’t want to test into a higher math so I can make my first year easier. I looked at the course description for int. algebra and the class covers some easy crap that I could get an A in with my eyes closed. I took Japanese 101 at a local community college and got a B in it with little to no effort and absolutely no studying so my class at MSU will be just a repeat so I don’t think it will be too hard for me, and its fun so I’m pretty sure I won’t have a hard time. And the integrative social studies class doesn’t seem too hard.

Do you think I am already setting myself up for ruin or do you think that I can handle it. I am also going to be taking kendo, have a job for about 15 hours a week though it is prolly going to be in a library so I will have more study time, and I will be in premed club and probably Japan club, though how much of a commitment these require still remains to be known.

So any advice will be greatly appreciated.
