1: Check Math and Physics first since it’s hard to enroll in an easy class for these subjects.
Summer:
Fall:
Professor Carty’s class in summer seems good with 22% A in his class and 3.4 ratemyprofessor rating.
I am able to watch calculus tutorials on Khan Academy and learn the subject quickly.
Since I have decided to take math 7 in the summer, I will be able to enroll in math 8 fall during the middle of the summer semester(Remember to ask the professor Carty, at what specific time I can enroll in a math 8 class).
2: Check English 1 which is more important than other GE courses:

Many easy classes are still open
3 My major:
Even though all the C++ classes are closed, there are still chances to get the class.
After SMC assigns professors to these sections, I will email the professor and ask for add code. I might get lucky.
If I am not lucky, I will ask for add code in person at the first meeting of the class.
4 Choose some easy GE courses so that I can be a full time student.

Remember: I am not guaranteed to get Math 8 and CS 52, I will just choose 3 or 4 GE courses. If I am lucky, I can swap GE courses for Math 8 and CS 52.
