School Projections
Tue Mar 04 2003

I got to looking at the catalog last night to try and tentatively project what classes I will be taking when. What I can say is that the on and off classes I have taken over the last 20 years have ensured that I have no more "fluff" classes to take. You know the ones. Communications, Humanities, Social Sciences and other General Electives. Yep. I definitely have all those out of the way. While that is a good thing in that it gives me fewer classes to take, it also ensures that all the classes I do have to take (with the exception of one of the computer classes) are going to be a bitch.

Until next fall, I will only be taking one class per term. One math class at a time will give me the opportunity to devote lots of time to increase my comprehension. While I enjoy doing math, it is not an easy subject for me. What I need is a bigger sledge to hammer it into my brain.

In the fall, my schedule will (hopefully) get interesting. If I can find the classes that I need being offered during the hours the kids are in school, the fall will see me taking Chemistry along with my math class (either the second pre-calc., or the first analytical geometry/calc. class depending on what I can get into this summer).

Looking at all the classes I need to take, and based on my taking 2 classes while the kids are in school and one class during the summer, I have 2 years with this school until I can transfer to a 4 year school. There is a however in here. However, if I am reading the catalog correctly, with three additional classes I can have a double major of CIS & math.

I've been toying with the idea of doing this, that if the math classes I have coming up do not knock me on my butt. I would not necessarily be doing this with any career plans in mind, but more to see if I can. I'm not sure what all an associates in math will do for me other than give a boost to my self confidence.

OK, now that I've counted all the chickens before they've hatched, actually before they have even been layed, I will continue with my pipe dreams and look further into the different schools I can transfer to.

    You got a 98 on your final!? WOW, good for you! I am jealous.
    After reading thru the list of math classes you left me I am even more impressed! But you will undoubtly make it just fine considering the 98 in this one.
    Good job Alli!

    Indeed we could learn something. That is simply an amazing article. I wonder how many people will be willing to consider this viewpoint?
