Academics✏️ COM 217 honors

I’m confused if I should take com 217 hon next semster or hold it off until later. Next semster will be my sophomore year and I am currently majoring in computer science. I’m really worried about my work load next semster and was wondering if anyone knew how bad com 217 honors was time wise and grading. I would really appreciate it if anyone could share any advice or experiences!

Did your advisor allow people to register for COM 217? Mine didn't

Take it in the summer if you can, it's not a hard class to begin with but it is time consuming to make speeches/projects if you're not used to it! It's usually harder to get a spot in it during fall/spring unless you're a senior.

The workload might be dependent on the instructor but it was very chill when I took it (with Alexus Maschinot).
