since its a community college and your taking intro classes i'd say take 5 clases in fall and spring. taking 4 really puts you in a bind. what if you really hate a class and want to drop. what if your doing badly and want to drop. if you dropped one class you wouldn't even be a fulltime student.
also, do universities even accept those intro clases? when i transfered from a community college after one year to the University of Kentucky, they would not accept any intro classes as valid credit hours. they said they were high school level.
and for scheduling i'd say NO!!! clases before 10 or 11am. Its college you need your sleep 🙂. and try and take em all on tuesday and thursday, then you'll have M W F off. monday is a bad day for a college student.

Thanks for the good advice, very useful..I guess I'll have to check on the Intro classes there.
And I think 4 classes will be fine, I'm going to try to stay committed not to drop any of them, although I fear Calc II will hurt my GPA..but it's a required class for transferring.
Plus one more thing..would you know how a community college schedule works? I only have the summer catalog here, and I see classes that are a bit over a month long and some are two months, and are about 2 and a half hours for each day, four days a week. How did your fall schedule look in terms of days and times? If I were to take 4 classes in a semester, what would you expect my schedule to be like?

MWF 12am SPI 101
MWF 1pm ENG LIT 1
MWF 2pm STA 201

GoldenBear: you're planning to go to chabot right? i don't have chabot info but since i go to ohlone i can give you a little info from there that should be the same...go to http://www.ohlone.cc.ca.us/ and click on class schedule to check out how they offer classes...people i know at chabot says its pretty much the same format..
each unit usually equals 1 college hour (50min), ex. 3 unit class meets MWF for 50 min a day (150min/wk), while a 3 unit class meeting TTh is 1hour and 15 min a day (also 150min/wk)...
when you get a catalog, it will tell you whether a class transfers to CSU or UC or neither...just take general ed first like math and english and then talk to a counselor at your community college, they can tell you more info about transferring to Berkeley or anywhere you want to go...
