Setbacks

I went in to talk to an advisor on campus today, to make sure that I was on track time-wise for everything I need in order to get into the Education program and graduate on time. Apparently, I'm not. When I first transferred in, I had asked different people (one of them a standard advisor, the other a Spanish advisor) if I was going to still be able to fit everything in if I re-took the 200-level Spanish classes. They said yes. The real answer was no. Keep in mind that all I have left after the Spring '09 term is a math class and the remainder of my Spanish courses before I enter the Ed program and take all of my Ed classes. But that leaves me with a total of 12 classes (all in 3rd or 4th level Spanish) that will have to be taken inside of two terms. It's just not practical. It just might be feasible if the schedules line up, and if my advisor lets me, and if the number of credits that would end up being fit within the limits of the maximum allowed per term. That's a lot of if's. And here's another one. If I had known that re-taking the 200-level Spanish was going to set me back this far, I would've taken the plunge on jumping into the Span 301 instead and trusted to my abilities in Spanish. Ugh. So this either means finding a way to take the 3rd year Spanish classes during the summer or pushing my likely graduation date back quite a bit. Steve is not going to be happy about this... I'm not exactly sure how I'm going to tackle this one.
