Nice that doesnt sound like too rough of a semester. Im sure the lab sciences will be a lot of work.
Im currently at a 2.66 but that includes a 0.00 from MAT 210 last semester and I should be able to get a B- this time. Im hoping to get around a 2.8-3.0 by the end of this semester
Best of luck to you!

Be careful with Intro to Chem. I dont know what school you go to but that class is always a lot tougher than it sounds. I have a friend who is a straight A/B student normally and he struggled to get a B in this class.

I got a 28 hour week coming up. How'd that compare with a college week over there? It's pretty heavy here unless you're doing Architecture. My GPA's 2.24, but it's back to zero now. It's from now on that it's counted for my degree. Which is nice.

No idea, I only have 9 hours of in-class per week. But I only take 2 of my 5 classes in-class. 3 of them are online so I have no idea really how much time per week I will have to put in
I expect to spend about 30 hours a week on school

28 hours is actuall in lecture and lab time for me. That doesn't include the crap load of time in the Lieberry I'll have to put in to do well. It's shit hard to become a teacher!

It's fuckin sickening man. It's been like that for the last two years. I found my groove with getting the work done the year just gone though.

Id rather have to take an extra semester or two rather than really stress myself out having to take heavy course loads. No way am I graduating after 4 years

Courses in what I want to do aren't that flexible over here. Can't wait to get back into the lab.

I take a tremendous pride in just being IN college and working towards something
I cant even imagine how it will feel once I am finished and have a career in my field of study
Congrats man

A local community college. Then I'm transfering over to a State college. I technically should be a junior this year...But I have been doing EMT things for a couple years now so no college for me haha. Now I think I want to open up a mushroom farm. So I dont know what classes to take other than business and biology. I dont think my college offers mycology.
