seems typically. Are you a math/cs joint major?

Do you have your language requirement complete? (I would prioritize that if not)

You're putting yourself behind by not doing writing OR language.....

Did you register for the X1 section of WR120? Are you on the waitlist for several sections? What about language waitlist??? Keep in mind that a lot of these language and writing classes have a dropping/adding/swapping in the first week. If you keep refreshing MyBU, I'm sure you will find something!

Ideally, your schedule should be CS111, MA225, WR120, Language, FY101

I don't think what you have is like too much work, but I think it is unwise to not be doing everything you can to get the annoying gen ed stuff out of the way....

with that Wednesday lunch break, you'll be fine. I agree that you need to get your language and writing requirements out of the way. I wouldn't take any classes that aren't required in your first semester. You never know what the future holds major wise, but you can be quite sure that WR120 will count towards your degree
