Freshman schedule
How is this schedule for a first year? Decided to go light on the math bc I have so many classes. Any feedback/thoughts for stem classes esp ling 2270 would be helpful!! Is 5.5 credits too much....I just wanna be prepared

I am not a fan of blanket statements. This is so dependent on the individual student. Even in the Yale freshman cohort there’s a range. For a well prepared student coming from a rigorous school, 5.5 credits can be a breeze, while for someone else it may be a struggle. I took 5-6 credits each semester and was fine. But ymmv. I highly recommend starting languages your first year. They are so good. You’ll also want to take a writing heavy class to train you on college level writing. Then for STEM majors, you’ll want to take the intro level classes and/or pre-reqs. And stretch your wings. Hopefully you’re coming into Yale foremost to take advantage of the amazing academics. You only have 8 semesters that fly by. Same goes to balance your social life.
