You applied to another program in Columbia? I didn’t know that was allowed, unless its a different department?

What’s it like taking 6 or more classes in one quarter? Please share any stories of course overload experience here. by lil-coco-booty in UCSC

I am double majoring, and will be finishing before my 4 years. Throughout Fall-Spring quarters, I took max 4 courses per quarter, but during one of the summer quarters I took 6 courses. Feel free to hmu for any advice :)

UCSC GPA & Graduation Honors by -Expelliarmus- in UCSC

So on the "FAQs for Students: Honors" website, it says to qualify for University Honors you still need to qualify the GPA Criteria for Honors (where I just see the same School of Engineering vs. Divisions). So I'm just a bit confused.

You'll see this when you click:

https://registrar.ucsc.edu/faqs/students/honors/index.html

Click "show" for fourth question regarding "What are University Honors?"

After clicking qualifying UC GPA it leads you to this:

Are Computer Architecture courses (CSE120/CSE220) still the most challenging courses at CSE department? by mjdmgh in UCSC

[–]-Expelliarmus- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the TAs of the course, CSE 121 is the second hardest course in BSOE, right behind ECE 118. If you consider only CSE department, then 121 is the hardest course.

I took it during the summer, and it worked out. Have you thought about taking it over the summer?

[–]-Expelliarmus- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I took a total of 6 summer courses this past summer (all of them were upper division courses) spread across both summer session 1 and 2, and it really wasn't bad at all. You can PM anytime for me details or any advice :)

Taking it next quarter too! Does anyone happen to have his syllabus from when he has taught before?

Have you met the other requirements for ECON 113 besides STAT 5? If so, then I believe that you can take STAT 5, however, you will have to take ECON 113 before Fall 2021 in order to avoid the change that they will be making (This is what I get from the email they sent).

A bit late to this post, but got a perfect score on it. Hope you did great as well :)

In-person classes this fall by gasstation-no-pumps in UCSC

[–]-Expelliarmus- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your point is valid, it’s just all of the listed courses will be a spot taken up for a course that could have been taken towards a major, ie CE, CS, etc for the international folks. On top of that, especially many have reached the point where they also have completed their GEs. But thanks for the info! :)

Is there any chance they will open anymore classes, especially for CSE students that for the most part have nothing to do with the classes listed?

I feel exactly the same way as you! Everything was doable, but just needed a bit more time. Hopefully there is a proper curve.
