I'd have been thrilled in college to even have 15 weeks for a CS course. My school had quarters instead of semesters, and I found the density really off-putting (for example, going through all of SICP in 8 weeks).

By the end of your freshman year, you had taken:

CS1005 (which was basically learning C)

CS2005 (Object-oriented programming)

CS2135 (Scheme)

CS2137 (Prolog)

More importantly, when you were taking 2137, you had pretty much forgotten everything you learned in 2135 (as you're basically just perpetually cramming).
