Hey guys,

I’m new here…

I am a member of class of 12 @ stanford, and i want to do engineering.
I kinda want to do either double major in EE and Management Science & Engineering; or Materials science & engineering and Management science & engineering but not sure. I might do co-term program too.

My course i’m thinking of:

Fall: IHUM, Math 51, Chem 31X, Physics 45, Physics 46 (18 units)

Winter: IHUM, Math 52, CS 106X, Physics 41 (18 units)

Spring: IHUM, PWR, Math 53, Physics 43, introsem. (20 units)

I have 5 on Calc BC, CS A, Chem, and AP Physics C mechanics. BUt our physics teacher sucks so I want to retake physics.

What is the difference between CME 100, 102, 103 and Math 51, 52, 53? Besdies CME uses matlab?
should i replace CS 106x w/ a chemistry class or introsem during winter?
I’m really good @ math/science, and i wish to do research at some point early on too. does that mean i should take less courses to fit research in? if i want to do it spring term freshman year that is.


Thanks for all your input!
