    Take all of them or just the math/science ones? I don't want to have to take government/history again.

    I'm sure his head is spinning haha.

    Just to clear it up, I won't be going to UT next year but plan on transferring. I was stupid and didn't apply there.

    U of H lol. I was going to go out of state but decided not to. I got into A&M and thought about it, but I don't want to go there. The biggest mistake was deciding to go out of state beforehand and not applying to UT (would have automatically got in)

    I guess it's somewhat risky, so we'll see what happens.

    take as many as you can in high school, and even if you get C's in the class...it was worth it when i got to college...even the ones i didnt really score well on didnt really matter...bc once i got to college, I had a head start...and was already familiar with my material..

    But i loved the fact that i didnt have to take any math classes after high school ever again(Cal AB...got a 5)...lol...kinda explains why im terrible at arithmetic now...

    This is sort of similar to what I did except I did go out of state(uga) then decided that I wanted to be closer to home and transferred in this past semester. If you're worried about transferring take the easiest classes you can to ensure that you have the highest possible gpa since that's what UT looks at above all else for transfer students. Also, you don't have to necessarily have 30 graded hours when transferring as long as you have 30 hours of credit. So for me I only had like 23 graded hours after my freshman year with a 3.8 gpa, but because of all my AP credits I had 58 hours and was fine. Also, transfer into an easier school if you're worried about getting in - you can always transfer major schools later.

    GPA matter a lot. Ge as many easy science classes you can get an A in under your belt. Upper levels are way harder, I have had all As in them but I can tell you its no joke.

    Neither, I'm mathematically "challenged" as the pc jargon would say. I've got Lit tomorrow, Govt Tuesday. Last year, I took APUSH and Lang and did pretty well, but I had amazing teachers for both (this year, not so much).

    If any of y'all end up in the DC area, look for a white guy in a rockets hoodie. It's most likely me.

    I thought they were horses but I'm probably remembering wrong. I know what you're talking about, though.

    Edit: Just read it again.

    ponies they are
