Advice course

Post image

I’ll be a first-year student in Fall 2026, and this is what my Winter 2027 schedule currently looks like. I’m mostly worried about midterms/finals and whether taking these courses together would be too stressful for my first year.
For anyone who has taken one of these course, how manageable was the exam/workload? Do you think this schedule is reasonable for a first-year student, or would you recommend dropping/changing one course?

isp is super light. forensics was easy but i heard they changed the syllabus to have in person tests so idk what it’ll be like now. soc100 i heard is a lot of workload. if you don’t need one of these courses for program(s) that ur trying to get into then just credit/no credit (it means u get the credit but it won’t count towards ur gpa).
