I spoke to my freshman child about class sizes: He took 4 classes in the fall, with sizes of 12 (FYS), 14 (Literature), 22 (Intro German) and “about 40” (Intro Physics). This semester, his physics class is down to “about 22-23”, and his calculus class is about 20. He said that the other German section had 8 people, but he couldn’t switch because of a scheduling conflict. He says that all of his profs know him and interact with him on a first name basis.

It seems like a reasonable guess that class sizes range from 10-25 except for the intro classes, which may run a little higher.

Hope all this helps. He is very happy at Wooster and is working hard.
