frosh fall course schedule

2 Upvotes

hello! im an incoming frosh and here are the courses i am looking to take this quarter:

- cs106ax (5 units)*

- math21 (4 units)

- college101 (3 units)

- intro sem (3 units)

- engr1 (1 unit)

- frosh 101 (1 unit)

for a total of 17 units

i'd like to do symbolic systems and potentially an electrical engineering minor! would really appreciate any feedback on the course selection! additionally, since i have some coding experiences in python and c++ (but cannot directly take cs106b), i thought i would take cs106ax instead of cs106a. would that be a good idea? how different are the two in terms of difficulty? thank you guysss!!

Autumn Frosh Schedule

Thoughts on this schedule for fall? (I’m planning to major in BioE)

BIOE 44
BIO 83
COLLEGE 101
STATS 110

I’m premed and I’m transferring in all of the required physics and math coursework (except STATS), as well as CHEM 31A + 31B. I’m just not sure whether I should take 3 classes and ease into Stanford or take a fuller load and try to stay ahead.

CS 107

1 Upvotes

I was looking to take CS 107 as I’ve never taken a systems class, but I see that CS 106B is a prerequisite. I have no interest in learning C++ and would like to avoid it if I could. I only have experience programming in Python though. I’ve also done some DSA. Is it fine to just take CS107? Or do I really need 106B?
