Material Removal and Forming Processes is easy

Principles of Marketing is easy

Principles of Economics is easy (I'm starting my minor in business, hence those 2 classes)

Retaking Calc II, still suck at it.

I have no classes Fridays though

Let's see...

IE 348 - Solidification Processes: Easy class but we have a lab report due every week. Basically a welding and casting class though which is fun.

Mat E 418 - Mechanics of Materials: Pretty hard, mostly math based which is boring

Mat E 453 - Physical and Mechanical Properties of Polymers: easy but lots of lab work, again lab report due every week

Mat E 414 - Professional Practice: class is a joke but we have a semester long project where we do work for a company (Rockwell Collins for my group) which is going to take a decent amount of effort.

Econ 102 - lol

So I don't really have a class that is kicking my ***. My schedule kind of sucks and I have two lab reports due every week which is zero fun. Basically, nothing too hard but way too busy for my last semester.

there were a couple chapters that were easier, the ones that were basically reviews of stuff we did in physics

cramster.com definitely helped with my homework grades in calc and engineering mech

Maintenance Technology
Business Stats
Quality Management
Industrial Projects
- Those make for an easy semester. Only need 3 more classes after this semester. Methods of Manufacturing, Cost Estimating, Operations Management. Gayzorz. They're only offered in the fall, otherwise I would be graduating this semester.
In the meantime, i'm taking it easy.

As long as you graduate in a decent time no one cares about W or what you dropped.

I never showed my transcript once. In fact i dont even have my diploma on my wall. They have no proof that graduated or even when to school.

If you can show you have an education they will train you at the rest. Drop it, take it in the summer. Just dont get behind.

why do you have to make a 4.0?

I'm not too worried about chem, if I bombed this test today then I'll drop it and go to summer skooz, but i want to take all of my lab/4hr. credit classes during the regular year so i don't have such little time to learn so much material

wow sometime I feel like my work load is easy compared to some, but then I realize that unlike some of you, the work I am doing right now is what is going to get my job. Stupid Senior Project is kicking my ***.

I just need to keep working on getting my demo reel done so i can graduate next quarter. Then I can hunt for a job in the gaming field.

Good luck to all of you with your chem, my school does have chem classes.
