More Registration

[MrLeisure757]

Thanks to Erik, I have an idea of what I need to do for registering. I have the big green course catalog. However, I'm just a little confused on what courses to take. I'm trying to find out what is recommended for Freshman year as far as general education and flying. If anyone can offer an input - it'd be greatly appreciated.

Adam,

I'd recommend taking AVIT 100, Meteorology 110 (AtSc 110 I think it's called?) in order to help you understand weather in 102 class, and AVIT 102 (Private Pilot or Test Course).

Also, get Applied Calc out of the way, unless you've taken AP Calculus AB or BC in high school.

What's your major going to be? Avit Mgt or Comm Avit? You should try to get most of your general ed courses out of the way so that you can enjoy the upper division courses your Junior/Senior year.

I'm with Jace, those are good classes for first semester along with your first language and Comp 110. Unless you know a second language, I'd recomend definetelly taking your first language in one of the fall semesters, cause if you do it in spring, by the time fall rolls around you've forgot it all for the second language class.

Yeah its nice to the gen eds out of the way the first two years. If you do take Calculus make sure not to get Stuart Farm, I had him and it SUCKED. Joe Champion is the way to go I here.

DO NOT get Stuart Farm. DO NOT get Stuart Farm, I repeat.

He's the WORST teacher I've ever had.

Nope. I'm still here in New Hampshire. I graduate High School tomorrow morning. Sunday I will be down on Martha's Vineyard working at the airport for the summer. I wasn't able to get any time for the Getting Started program at UND since Summer is insanely busy at MVY. So I have to register online. Yes, I'm driving out my car in August with my Step-Father and Mom. Then they are flying back. My car should do just fine in the snow, it did perfectly fine this winter. Afterall, I have been driving in snow my entire life. The interesting thing is that it is about 350 miles shorter for us to drive through Canada and down through Minnesota then going around the other way!

Thanks for the advice Jace and Joekster. I'll go ahead and take the general ed courses so that I can finish them. I'll plan to take German since I already know it quite well, and I'll definately take Calculus since I took Calculus 012 this year. About Stuart Farm - is there a way to avoid having a certain teacher when signing up? Or after you find out, switch?

Thanks for all the help. I really appreciate it.

You will be able to see who the prof is for the class when you look online. So if you don't want him, choose a section that he doesn't teach.

EDIT: And as for what to take, I would take something like this:

AVIT 100 - 1 credit - easiest college class you'll ever take
AVIT 102 - 5 credits - gonna have to study/work hard in this class
AVIT 103 - 2 credits - piece of cake
ATSC 110 - 4 credits - not too tough, good stuff to know as you start flying
some 3 credit gen ed (psych, english, etc) - likely to be easy, depends on what you take
TOTAL 15 credits

I always screwed up the easy classes, and did great on the 'hard' classes people claim. Being that most people around here find science related topics to be hard. I don't have discipline, thats why I screw up.
