I'm a college freshman and for my first semester I have the following scheduled:

College Chemistry
General Chemistry Lab
Biological Concepts: Ecology, Evolution, and Genetics
Calculus I
Biochemistry/Chemistry Seminar

I'm at 15 credit hours at the moment and I already have my English credits.

I was thinking of adding an easier class...

Thoughts?

If you think you can handle it, then go for it.

even if its an easier class it adds to your schedule. it just depends on what you feel most comfortable with.

That is the thing, I don't know if I can handle it. My dad told me not to stack up during my first semester, because I have to get used to everything...but it seems like a waste of time if I don't.

15 is a fairly standard credit load if you're completing a BA in four years, so I wouldn't worry about taking more just yet. Perhaps once you've had time not only to adjust, but to solidify your GPA and find your place on campus, you can take a heavier load. But unless your major/degree is highly rigid and sequential, and not adding another class will delay graduation, you're golden for now.

I would suggest adding a 3 credit course, that way, if you have to drop, you don't lose.

if you think you need it, then go for it. That doesn't look like that heavy of a load.

Not in this day and age. 15 credits a semester is only 240 credit hours. Many degrees require more.
