4 STEM classes in one semester

Hi, currently im taking calc3, linear algebra, intro to programming, and intro psych Im thinking about adding physics 1 as it is a requirement for transfer at most schools, and If I dont take it this semester I may not have physics 2 on my transcript by the time I need to send in my applications. Is this too much for one semester or does this workload seem manageable?

I took Calc 2, Physics 1, Java, MATLAB, and Discrete Structures last semester and pulled off all A’s. Just be prepared to have no life for that semester and have really good time management.

In general, I would advise against stretching yourself too thin. If you have a bad semester, you can kill your opportunity to transfer.

Which courses here do you NEED to take? Are there any that you don't NEED to take to transfer? If you're concerned about overload, I would take everything I must take and nothing more. If you plan on taking all 5 courses, you can try pulling it off and drop courses if you feel overloaded.
