i enrolled in classes today, opting to take 18 units. I had a talk with a math department counselor today, i'll have to rewrite my academic plan to reflect my taking fewer units than I had anticipated. I'll be at UCI up until next fall quarter, maybe winter. This workload is really draining my spirits. I think that 26 unit quarter was a little ( Read more... )
