Might make an easier transition into cmpt 225?
Basically I'm just asking if cmpt 128 is a lot harder than 125/126 lol

I took 303, 336, 360, 312 during Spring. I felt that it was manageable because I had Bob Korth for 303 (I don't think hes teaching Fall 2013). We only had 3 case analysis write ups, 2 homework assignments which took very little time to complete and no exams. I don't think the other professors are that light in terms of the course assignments/exams. 336 with Michael Johnson is relatively easy and the assignments, exams are straightforward. Good luck!

I would recommend these profs because Eric tries to help you with the assignments if you go to his office hours. For George you have basically open book MT and Finals so its really easy.

Anyone doing a joint major or knows someone that is/has?
I'm trying to decide between Business + IAT and Business + Comp Sci and would like some opinions or hear about experiences. IAT sounds like it would be more enjoyable, but comp sci might compliment business more. Any input?

I find that although IAT is a lot more enjoyable than comp sci, it's so broad and covers so many fields that it never really specializes is any one thing (compared to other majors). For that reason, I would say that comp sci would be more useful.
Then again, I suppose it depends on what you want to do in the end since IAT covers more than just programming and computer stuff. If you want to go into design or media arts then IAT would benefit you more so than comp sci

I have a question for some of you science guys,
Is there really a direct relation between CHEM122 (lecture) and CHEM126 (LAB). I believe they are to be taken concurrently with one another.
And also, how is STAT201 in terms of work load and "easiness"?
I'm contemplating whether to take 3 or 4 courses, but the 3 I'm planning to take have a pretty heavy load already.

Stat 201 is somewhat math based. The workload is not heavy but when I took it with scott pai, I needed to do weekly homework kind of like in math 154, 155. The course material is basically about normal distribution and different statistical techniques such as chi square, ANOVA. The course is managable/doable. Sorry I'm just rambling, I have a class coming soon.

The material in 207 is definitely not easy, and it takes quite a bit of time to learn. The TA's she had were very helpful during office hours. That being said, I messed up badly on the final, so I received a really low-mark for her class.
Probably the hardest lower-division course out of all.
