Summer school courses
Hey guys, I'm in Eng and I'm taking Physics 1E03 (didnt do it during the year) as well as Math 2ZZ3 (going ahead) in the 2nd summer school term. It seems like a heavy courseload and I know its doable, I just wont have a lot of time to do other stuff. I wanted to get started on some software projects but I feel like I wont be able to focus on those. Is it a good idea to just take Physics 1E03 and do Math 2ZZ3 during the school year? How difficult is 2zz3 in the summer compared to the year? Any help/opinions would be greatly appreciated!

Both easier. You can prob find time to do software projects cause you'll be put off from doing stuff like 2zz3

taking 2zz3 in the summer is much easier than taking it in the regular term. I took it in the last summer, and honestly I was absent 50% of the class and studied by myself, I still got 9. My frds who attended every single class, got 12 on it. However, in the regular term, even though some people paid effort, they still got around 7, only very few of them got 10.

So the lesson to take away from this is that some folks might pay attention and get a 7 and others might get a 12, and other folks who pay attention 50% of the time end up with a 9...

Gotcha.
