I'm definitely going to fail freshman course of business administration. I can understand engineering, scientific stuff, math, programmings, etc..... but the money stuff continues to elude me.... :dizzy:

Take it as an elective. Won't cost you anything above your regular tuition. You have to have the electives, anyway. May as well take something you can use.

most colleges around here offer free courses after you reach the minimum # of credits for full-time status. For example - 12 credits per semester is considered a full-time student. It's free after 12 credits. In my college - 12 credits is typically 4 classes (3 credits apiece) so I used to do 15-16 credits per semester - got a nice bang out of my buck!

sure why not. most people take useless/easy electives just to finish college faster but I did not do that because I did not pay several thousand dollars just to stroll thru and get my required degree. If i'm paying that much - then I should learn as much as I can while it's free and it was worth a hardship and time for me.

Agreed. We run on the quarter system, but for undergrad, full time tuition is 12 hours. Anything between 12 hours and 20 hours is the same price. At 21 hours, they assess an additional fee.

really? interesting about 21 hrs + fee thing. But I guess I didn't know about it cuz that is too crazy and stressful to do 21 credits per semester - I guess only for extremely ambitious/intelligent people.

Not many people will load themselves down like that, especially when running on quarters. Only 10 weeks to complete the assignments for a 21 credit hour quarter...its insane!

what's PJC? 4-5 classes per semester as full-time status is pretty typical of many colleges. I did about 5-6 per semester including 2 per summer semester and graduated just about 1.5 years early (about 3 semesters early). I saved a lot of money as well. but it wasn't easy. it does cause a huge mental drain

I have 2 friends who did overloaded semesters and finished school in less than 3 years years. They're the most ambitious and smartest people I know. One is currently at Yale med school to be neurosurgeon (or maybe doing a residency already)... I mean yea go figured for neurosurgeon to be such a hardcore hard-worker like that. I lost contact with other one so I dunno what's up with him.
