swagner is an unknown quantity at this point
In the beginning, I would stick with just 3 classes. You may be tempted to add more courses as your academic career matures, but I must tell you to be careful. I began Cal Poly with 5 friends; we all were hoping that we would move through the years together and eventually attend the same graduation ceremony. I graduated last month on the 12th. Out of the 6 of us, just 2 made it (That is including me). The other 4 failed out; each had their reasons, but all of them agreed on one thing, that they tried to rush college by taking more classes than they could handle. When they went on AP, they tried to "fix" their lack of progress by taking even more classes which they certainly were not prepared for, thus getting kicked out of school. It's a real shame. Anyway, just know what you can and can't do in school. Make sure that you give yourself enough time to relax.
