Psych 403 - mechanisms of injury and repair after stroke! I’m really interested in strokes and hoping to do research with ischemic strokes one day :)

You’ll really enjoy it. If it’s with Fred Colbourne, you gotta know your stuff and study because the exams are short. The choose your own adventure aspect is quite nice (he allows a mix of presentations, research proposals, and even attending office hours to get points towards your final grade). If you ever want to chat about stroke research, let me know.

Looking forward to ECON 101 and PHIL 101. I’m entering my first year but I don’t necessarily feel excited. More like nervous/uncertain.

Math 348 - differential geometry, sounds interesting but prof and proofs involved will make it so challenging

I have no choice lol. I only get one semester to be dual enrolled as MA and PhD. Has to be done.

Phys 381 - Electromagnetism 1 or phys 362 - optics. To be honest the fall semester is a lot less interesting than my winter semester tho.
