i know it depends on the professor, but how is this class in general?

Sociology is a great subject.  It was my minor in college (BS, Psychology, University of Houston), so I took several sociology-based classes.  I think you'll find it interesting, especially when your instructor starts to cover the various sociological theories and how they apply to your everyday life.

Head of the Class... just a guess.

Hi BrianL! Anyway, bad course requirement! Keep the major and make the school let him take the class anyway. I'm serious. Talk to the professor and the professor will let him take it anyway. They can, and always do that. They like to be approached. They are lonely like me.

Go with the easy professor.  It's easier to have to wake up early/stay up late and have a teacher you can learn from and get a fair grade from than get a good hour and have a hard time in class anyway.  But make sure you know WHY they say he's a hard professor, because maybe it's something you wouldn't mind, even if everyone else does.

Hi there, I just wanted to comment on the Stats and Calc thing: I have a few friends who are taking both and they seem to be doing fine.  they all have A's in both.  I am taking 4 AP's this year and one independant study AP class as a senior and i'm not having too hard of a time.  here are my classes just in case you want to know:\n\nAP Environmental Science\nAP English Literature and Composition\nAP Art History\nAP Microeconomics\nAP Human Geography (Independant Study)\n\nI have previously taken:\nAP European History\nAP US History\nAP Psychology\nAP US Government and Politics\n\nI think you should be fine, and feel free to ask if you have any questions on the classes I took.  Adios!

Read the book do the homework and listen best you can in class.  Some professors are great lectures some can barely be understood but if you do the reading and problems you are in good shape.  Find the TA and ask about the professors style like are the tests based on lecture or book then adjust accordingly.

It may help in the future to read the syllabus and do some of the work before it is assigned. I always preferred classes where the prof. "front loaded" making the end of the course somewhat easier prior to exams.

I'm taking their Medical Coding & Billing Diploma program.  I'm about half way finished.  So far I'm happy with my studies however I really wish there were interaction between students in the same program through a discussion board - espiecially once I get to the actual coding courses. It would be great to communicate back and forth with the instructor and other students to get some "real world" feedback.  Books can only teach you so much.

She's definitely a dynamic character (d).  I just spent about 2 classes trying to get my students to see the difference between dynamic, static, round, and flat characters.  Trust me. :)

It depends on whether your university is on a semester system or a quarter system.  In a semster system 5 classes is average but I would recommend 6 classes (at least your first year) so that you don't have to worry about credit requirements when you are graduating.  7 classes would be insanely difficult and your school probably will not allow you to take that many- mine didn't my freshman year.  If you are in a quarter system (my best friend is) you should take 3-4 but 5 might be ok- most definitely not 7!  And not that you asked this- but if you can- try to figure out your major as soon as possible so you can get a head start on credits.  I took a third of the classes necessary for my philosophy major in my first semester which made it really easy for me to pursue a double major.  GOOD LUCK :)

Know the material covered in class, it's really that simple. I've found I remember the most when I try and absorb as much as I can when it is actually being gone over in lecture. Often times for me, this means not taking any notes (typically all that you need to know is covered in your class text) and focusing on understanding the concepts being gone over.

Mixture of everything and depends on who is teaching the class and how it is being taught.

Hey.\n\n      I've used ratemyprofessor.com before. It's really helped me find which professors I can cope with and which i can't. Don't judge your professor on their personality, but rather if they're a good teacher or not. In fact, don't just use this site to judge professors, but ask upper classmens from your school too. If you think you can handle five courses, then go for it. Just make sure you get a feel of your schedule first and if you don't like it, then change it around or drop a class you don't need to finish as of now.

It sounds pretty good but a lot of it depends how you use it. For school and browsing the interent it's going to do just fine.

It is definitely manageable, but you may want to be careful too. It is certainly convenient, but it also requires quite a bit of self-discipline. If it is a reputable online course - through an accredited college or university - then the coursework is not likely to be easy. You might want to start out with one class at first, especially since you say you haven't had any prior college experience. It might also be good for you to take an in-person class now and again so that you can get the overall college experience through class discussions, etc. that are difficult to convey through an online environment. Hope that helps!

Usually a regular college class has 3 credits, or credit hours. Some courses vary and have 1, labs, or up to 6 credits.
