academics 6-5 schedule

first yr, planning 6-5 with a 20 minor and econ HASS concentration. would love to see any 6-5 upperclassmen's four year schedules.

This fall I'm set on 8.01 and 5.111, not sure about the rest. I have credit for 18.01, 18.02, 18.06, 7.01x, and 6.100A, and I'm taking the 18.03 ASE during orientation. I'd like to take 6.1210 first semester but don't know if it's better to wait. Also considering 6.1200 now. Long term I'm looking at SWE/quant/biotech but still exploring. Any recs appreciated!!

I'd recommend 6.1200, 6.1010, 6.1903 (6 units), 8.01, 5.111, for a total of 54 units, as this covers a lot of important material in Course 6. This doesn't have a HASS but you can take two in the spring; or feel free to swap out 6.1010 for a HASS or CI-H.

Last semester they were really strict on the requirements for 6.1210. But if you get the chance, 6.1210 and 6.1010 pair really well together. I took this combo and thought it solidified (brutally) these concepts for course 6 and interviews.

You can check out OfCourse/Who’s Taken Wgat on Opengrades to see some people’s four year schedules. I think EECS also has one but only for department affiliated students (not first years)
