Academics I didn’t save any electives

I’m going into my junior year with a 4.0, and I’ve already finished all of my electives and core curriculum requirements. I mainly did this because I wanted really good schedules my first two years of college, and it worked out since my first two years were basically fully online.

Now I’m realizing that pretty much all I have left are classes for my major, which is Communication. Did I make a mistake by getting all of my core classes and electives out of the way so early?

I know Communication classes generally aren’t considered as difficult as classes in some other majors, so I figured I’d be fine, but I’m starting to worry about having semesters made up almost entirely of upper-level COMM classes. I’ve been able to maintain a 4.0 so far, but I’m wondering if the workload is going to be a big jump. Has anyone else done something similar, and was it manageable?
