For reference, I did two years of Chemical Engineering and I plan on switching to Computer Engineering this semester. In order to graduate on time, I'll need to take 4 more semesters of 19, 18, 18, and 15 hours. I am an out-of-state student on a full scholarship, so I would rather not pay for an extra semester (~20k). I don't need to work at all, have no commute (live 5 minutes away by walking), and have basically zero other responsibilities. There is also the issue that future semesters will likely have tougher classes, but I can face that when I get there. I had a 4.0 in ChemE after 2 years. For example, this is my schedule for the coming semester:
Digital Logic Circuits (3 hours)
Circuits I (4 hours)
Intro to OOP in C++ (4 hours)
Discrete Math (4 hours)
Engineering Statistics (3 hours)
Physics Lab II (1 hour)
(19 hours)
Although I am more concerned about later semesters where I will have 3-4 upper div EE/CS courses with 1-2 EE/CS electives...
For reference, here are my last two semesters of chemE (4.0 in both).
Last:
Organic Chemistry II (4 hours)
Organic Chemistry Lab (1 hour)
US History (3 hours)
Differential Equations (3 hours)
Thermodynamics (4 hours)
Intro to C++ (3 hours)
(18 hours)
Second to Last:
Organic Chemistry I (4 hours)
Calculus III (4 hours)
Physics II (4 hours)
Physics Lab I (1 hour)
Process Principles (3 hours)
Honors WWII History (3 hours)
(19 hours)
Any thoughts? Is this doable? Should I just give in and take the 20k in loans?
