What do you think of this fall quarter schedule?

In summary, the speaker is a senior double majoring in mathematics and economics. Their fall schedule includes Topology, Game Theory, and Poverty/Public Policy, with the possibility of adding Algebraic Geometry as a fourth class. They are seeking advice on the challenging courses and considering speaking to their professor or department chair for more information. They also plan to utilize resources to support their learning.

So I am going to be a senior this fall
double majoring it mathematics and economics

right now my schedule is for the fall is:

Topology (5 units)
Game Theory (5 units)
Poverty/Public Policy (5 units)

and most likely going to be grading for vector calculus or number theory.


I really want to add Algebraic Geometry (5 units) as a fourth class as it has never been offered at our school and I won't have another chance to take it. What do you think of that new schedule? Any advice on algebraic geometry and topology as I hear they are challenging classes, but I have only experience in Differential Geo. (which I really enjoyed last quarter). Any input helps!


Thanks

for your question! Algebraic geometry and topology are both challenging classes, but if you have taken differential geometry then you should have a good foundation for the material covered in those courses. It sounds like you're interested in taking algebraic geometry so I think it would be a great addition to your fall schedule. You should consider speaking to your professor or the department chair to see what kind of topics will be covered in the class and whether or not it is a good fit for your academic goals. Additionally, you should also look into the resources available to you for the class such as tutoring, study groups, or even online materials that can help you better understand the material. Good luck with your studies!
