The Perils of Scheduling

So, it works out, as I mentioned, that not only do I have fall term to populate with classes, I have winter term as well. And then spring will look good and I'll be in England.

Well, sort of.

Checked my little sheet of stuff I need to graduate, and I'm at 135 credits, need 180 to graduate. And 33 of 60 upper division to graduate. I had in the past totally forgotten about the 180 bit. So I THOUGHT I could take it easy. But no. So we rework fall's schedule, and come up with...

M7-10PM     HSTS 414 HISTORY OF 20TH CENTURY SCIENCE
TR9:30-11AM HST 315  EUROPEAN MILITARY 1400-1815
TR12:30-2PM HST 474  JEFFERSONIAN & JACKSONIAN DEMOCRACY
TR2-4PM     PS 204   INTRO TO COMPARATIVE POLITICS
TR5-6:30PM  ANTH 210 COMPARATIVE CULTURES

And just for fun, I have a 12 credit winter term, of which 2 classes are pathetic lower divisions, one is a random upper division, and one is my writing intensive, but it's on Abraham Lincoln instead of Women in Modern Europe. This is good. Then in spring, I go to England hopefully and take another 16 credit term. Life can be good.

And then I will be done.

And for the record, my summer is drawing to a close. Move into dorms 9am Sept 23. Classes begin Sept 29. Soon. Soon.

But wait, there's more. Check the bookstore to see how books are going to be....

20 books. Holy. Shit. Looks like I'm gonna be all up into reading next term.

Dude, ouch. That 7-10 is going to kill. I envy the only TR classing though. I've got Fridays off at least.

Do M and TR mean Monday and Tuesday-Thursday or just Monday and Thursday?

And I concur on the 7-10 class thing. Looks like a good class, but that's a nasty time to have it. And whatever day TR is, that looks like it's gonna be real packed. Ouch.

Um...if you're taking 16 credits this term, 12 winter, and 16 spring, doesn't that mean you'd be a credit short if you're at 135/180 currently?

M = Monday
T = Tuesday
R = Thursday

So TR is Tuesday+Thursday. So yeah. That'll suck.

Actually not minding the 7-10 class, oddly.

Actually that should be 16/13/16. Not only can I count, I can type, too.
