Hey all! I'm a rising first year at UChicago, and I was hoping to get some feedback on my tentative schedule. I'm currently hoping to either major in Math w/Econ or double major in Math/Public Policy. I also have Statistics and Poli Sci in the back of my mind. I absolutely love pure math, but I also love the social sciences, and I want to somehow combine the two in a manner that meaningfully contributes to society.
As of now, this is the schedule I'm considering:
1. Honors Calculus IBL
2. Human Being and Citizen
3. Physics 130s
4. Intro to Latin
Is this a reasonable work load? I have a part time job telecommuting that will take about 6 hours/week. In addition, I want to join the university symphony orchestra, which seems like it might be a big time commitment as well. I'm fairly set on taking Calc IBL, and I obviously have to take a HUM class. I was considering taking SOSC first year (I really want to take SSI in particular) instead of Latin, but I think that might be too ambitious. For some context, I did well in AP Physics C and high school Latin, although I haven't taken Latin since sophomore year (the AP teacher went on maternity leave so I never took it). If, by a miracle, I place out of a quarter of Latin, I want to take Econ 198.
So yeah, I know that was kind of an info dump, but I just want more opinions on this. I'm worried I might be biting off more than I can chew! All feedback is appreciated.
