RSM230 with Goldreich isn't particularly difficult—it's mostly about understanding a few concepts and knowing which formulas to use. Goldreich is an excellent professor (10/10); he responded to an email at 2am asking for help and extension two days before a due date, gave the extension, and had the TA reach out for additional support. Watching lectures is more useful than reading the textbook. I took 6 classes in second semester of first year (MAT133, RSM219, RSM230, MGR101, ECO102, RSM100) and made it through, but wouldn't recommend that heavy a load unless you can really handle it.
