I take that as a huge compliment. Linguistics and sociology are two subjects that I am not well versed in, and should probably explore. |
Same here, regarding political science :)
Though it seems you're more focused on international affairs this semester - am I mistaken, or are you really a political science major? I know both areas are interconnected but... I tend to mix things up :p |

I enjoyed macro in college. :conf: |
Maybe it's the teacher. Ours did nothing but lecture. Zero class participation, little effort to make the subject come alive. Just teaching out of a textbook. |

I was political science as an undergrad, but international affairs and development as a graduate student. Within political science, I mostly focused on comparative political economy and conflict, so it segued well into an international affairs M.A. program. |

The current plan (hopefully I won't drop half of it and sign up for random bs a month into the term like last time...)
18.410J Design and Analysis of Algorithms
Techniques for the design and analysis of efficient algorithms, emphasizing methods useful in practice. Topics include sorting; search trees, heaps, and hashing; divide-and-conquer; dynamic programming; greedy algorithms; amortized analysis; graph algorithms; and shortest paths. Advanced topics may include network flow; computational geometry; number-theoretic algorithms; polynomial and matrix calculations; caching; and parallel computing.
6.867 Machine Learning
Principles, techniques, and algorithms in machine learning from the point of view of statistical inference; representation, generalization, and model selection; and methods such as linear/additive models, active learning, boosting, support vector machines, hidden Markov models, and Bayesian networks.
18.950 Differential Geometry
Introduction to differential geometry, centered on notions of curvature. Starts with curves in the plane, and proceeds to higher dimensional submanifolds. Computations in coordinate charts: first and second fundamental form, Christoffel symbols. Discusses the distinction between extrinsic and intrinsic aspects, in particular Gauss' theorema egregium. The Gauss-Bonnet theorem. Geodesics. Examples such as hyperbolic space.
6.207J Networks (this is supposed to be my Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences class this semester - lol)
Highlights common principles that permeate the functioning of diverse technological, economic and social networks. Utilizes three sets of tools for analyzing networks--random graph models, optimization, and game theory--to study informational and learning cascades; economic and financial networks; social influence networks; formation of social groups; communication networks and the Internet; consensus and gossiping; spread and control of epidemics; control and use of energy networks; and biological networks.
and maybe as a substitute for one of the above ...
18.435J Quantum Computation
Provides an introduction to the theory and practice of quantum computation. Topics covered: physics of information processing; quantum algorithms including the factoring algorithm and Grover's search algorithm; quantum error correction; quantum communication and cryptography. Knowledge of quantum mechanics helpful but not required. |

Took all these... Sensation/Perception was the most difficult but one of my all time favorite college classes. |

| Stats will probably be the most difficult for me because I'll be falling asleep all the time. |
