The semester is here!

So what classes are you all taking?

I've got--
SPA313 - Spanish Conversation/Composition, requirement for Spanish minor.
POS315 - Supreme Court
POS497 - National Security Analysis, which is a graduate class (POS 598) cross-listed for honors students
POS346 - Problems of Democracy
POS401 - Political Statistics
POS499 - Special Topics, which is actually credit and registration for a class I'm *teaching* called POS191 - Politics and Propaganda of Nazi Germany. No, I'm not the TA, I put together the syllabus and everything. It's going to be fun!

Books cost about $420. Eight of the twelve were used!

This semester will finish up all of the core classes for my B.A. in political science. Next semester, I'm starting to take actual graduate classes (with the actual 500-level designation) for poli sci and continue taking required courses for the B.A. in psychology. I'm trying to get (in five years): B.A. in political science, B.A. in psychology, M.A. in political science, and a minor in Spanish.

I want to work in intelligence after college.

The prefixes are funny. POS###

At any rate, I'm not in college, I'm a mere highschooler, but, in order of my excitement:

1st year AP Calculus (Yeah, I'm looking forward to math the most. Bite me.)
1st year AP Physics
2nd year Spanish
World History
Beginners Tennis (PE. Ugh.)
2nd year High School English (The bonehead English class, folks)

They axed AP Computer Science at our school, so no official course for me.

I'm not taking any classes this semester, won't be able to finish them due to recruitment.

Taken so far:

(Stupid course) Introduction to CS
(Neat courses) ASM, Digital Systems
(Awesome courses) Infi 1, 2 (best of the list), 3
(Great courses) Linear Algebra 1, 2
(Cool course, but not tested on it yet) Ordinary Differential Equations

Around 30-35% of a degree completed by recruitment time. I will skip a semester or two and then get authorized to resume studying.

At our school they offer the AP European History course after you complete the Introduction to AP psychology/geogrophy/anthropology course.

Grade12 English
Grade12 Computer Science
Grade12 Computer Engineering
Grade12 Calculus
Grade12 Discrete
Grade12 Chemistry
Grade12 Physics or Data Management
Grade10 Food And Nutrition (need a social science, might as well be something I'm interested in even if it's with a bunch of kids)

I failed grade 11 physics by 4% (generally the teacher passes you if you get 45%, but this teacher was a dumbass, not only could she not teach, she could barely speak english), so I'll ask the principal if I can take grade12 physics anyways, and if she says no then Data Management is my next choice (deals with probability and organizing data, good course). I plan on going into database developement/administration, physics is only needed if I were to do some engineering (which wouldn't be bad to have, I think I can take physics in university anyways).

The semester is here!
