So far, so good. I don't _think_ I'm in too far over my head. As for the classes:
Biology: I could sleep through this class and still get a B. I'll stay awake and study, though, because I'll be damned to New Jersey before I let myself get shown up by a bunch of punk kids!
Math: Oh, this is going to suck. At one point, I knew all this junk, but I've forgotten it over the last 10 years. Almost recognizing the cryptic symbols involved just makes it more frustrating. And the teacher's accent doesn't make it any easier. I'm almost tempted to drop it, but I won't just yet.
Introduction to Speech Disorders: Seems pretty interesting, and not too hard.
Linguistics: Now, this _is_ interesting. I think I already know most of what will be covered this semester, but I'm sure that, as my knowledge is limited to what I've picked up at random over the years, there are glaring gaps in it. This will probably be the most fun class.
History of Central Asia: Another one that seems interesting yet-not-too-trying. I'll have to see if it's not too late to "upgrade" for honors, writing a couple extra essays should be simplicity itself.
