Math 510 is pretty hit and miss. Make sure you don't get a communist for a teacher. If you get the easy guy, then it's by far the easiest class I ever took at KSU. D first time, A second time. Very useful for 3 card monte players, otherwise
Stat 510 is &@#%in easy.
557--is that EM theory? That class is pretty tough. I had the lady (seriously I can't remember anyone's name anymore.) That's one you gotta keep up with every day. I was notorious for simply not doing homework, so I got a C. Hardly anyone uses this stuff, so I say survive and advance.
EECE 431--finally something worthwhile. I suggest you start thinking about coming up with a decent project to do right now. Ours sucked and I really regret it. Think it was a fairly easy B. This will be useful in your career.
EECE 511--I barely remember it. Got a B I think. Circuits are pud.
CIS 300--They switched to Java the semester after I took it (was C++). It's probably a lot easier using a programming language written for secretaries. I never learned how to program at K-State, but at least in this class I learned that programming is somehow possible. You will learn absolutely nothing from the lectures, but the teachers will teach if you go in during office hours. Pretty important to ace this class before going forward.
That's a pretty rough schedule. If I were you, I'd drop EM theory and try to get As in all the other classes so you can coast through the rest of your college career with a decent GPA. 21 (and the subsequent total lack of interest in school) isn't that far off. Nobody needs to graduate in 4 years anyway. Take the one really fun class at K-State, which is the robotics contest. Warning it is very time consuming--forget about Mexico over Spring Break.
LOL: Note just saw the message by Az about EM theory. He probably works for Motorola?? I've been in software and storage devices my entire career, so obviously a different perspective. You'll probably never touch hardware unless you really really are into it. There just aren't that many jobs to go around. Everyone ends up in software eventually.
