This is the schedule I enrolled in. Here are some things to look out for:
- I am taking the upper division PHYS 116A in my first term because I placed out of every previous math class. Yes, including MATH 23A and 23B through dual enrolled credit.
- PHYS 116A has a discussion, but the time is agreed upon my the students (myself included)
- Mondays are insanely tough days while Thursdays act as holidays or flex days.
- Tuesdays end early except the four weeks in which there is a plenary (C9 has only four while some colleges like Oakes have 10 of them).
- I intentionally avoided having any back-to-back classes, guaranteeing myself 90 minutes between blocks to work on problem sets, take a short power nap, or explore around campus.
- MAJOR: ASTROPHYSICS

During a college advising zoom, C9/JRL claim that they have four plenaries. An orientation leader from oakes claimed they had one every week (all 10). One from crown said there were 10 plenaries but only two were required. What are the requirements for every residential college?

MAJOR: Astrophysics

Planned Schedule:

PHYS5A: M,W,F 14:40-15:45
PHYS5A Discussion: M 19:10-20:15
PHYS5L: Tu 8:30-11:30
PHYS116A: M,W,F 12:00-13:05
CLNI 1A: M,W,F 9:20-10:25
CLNI 1A Seminar: Tu 19:10-20:45

Total units: 16

Enrollment appointment: August 10 (earlier than most new students)

The outlier in this schedule is PHYS116A. I am taking the class very early because I already took Multivariable calculus in high school (clearing both 23A and 23B). I would rather get a head start on an upper division course ASAP so I don't forget the multivariable material (and so I can stay ahead of the new students who maxed out at AP Calc BC).

I am trying to give myself one day of the week off, and the only possible days to give myself off are Thursdays.

I am not taking any Gen Ed courses in my first term because most requirements have already been cleared and I am in two GE courses in summer edge online (one in session 1, and another in session 2).
