While I am scheduled to graduate in May, I am considering...
Staying in for one more semester. Here's why...My plan is to work for a bit before Grad school, and while I will have my Economics BA, I don't feel that I have enough of the hardcore classes, and too many of the wishy-washy ones (Econ history, etc). Also, my major doesn't require Calculus as a pre-req, only Pre-Calc, and I think I should take it, esp. for Grad school.

I'm meeting with one of my Professors next Weds. to discuss this with her. I have 2 weeks to apply for May graduation, so I will need to decide soon.

What do y'all think? :hi:

1. You're going to stay in school to take Calculus?
I think you're completely insane. Good luck with that.

5. If you think it'll help, go for it.
Just don't take too many classes at once.

6. Nah, probably only 4
I've done 4 Econ classes at once before, and survived (as did my GPA) :)

Thanks! :)

7. When I read this I broke into a cold sweat.
Series.

I think you are a dedicated scholar and studying more can only make you even smarter than you already are. Go for it. But I really must add: "Better you than me". :hi:

When I am under a great deal of stress I have a recurring nightmare of being back in school, last day of classes. I suddenly realize I have forgotten to attend and I am running up and down the hallways begging for incompletes. "Ill make up the work, I swear!". It's truly awful!
