4+1 Masters Question

Would it be possible to get an extension of benefits to pursue a masters program that would take one extra year? And if so, would it incur an ADSO?

For context, I would take 12 credits of grad classes total as a Senior, then I would finish the remaining 18 the next year.

I was told by a tour guide that this would be possible, and ive heard of people getting extension of benefits for a 5th year at my school before.

I worked my butt for a B, but I am not angry. I am happy I got through it. From withdrawaling last semester, I thought I was never capable of doing math at that level, but I am glad I did(also my professor was a goat)

I am however a bit sad that even though I scored 90+ on all 3 exams, I got anxiety on the final and it dropped my grade from an A- to a B, especially considering all the office hours, studying, and completing every assignment I have put effort towards. The 2 hours absolutely flew by.

I will now be taking calc II over the summer, and so i ask: what advice would anybody give for somebody in my shoes? I have no insightful questions, I just don't want to feel as heartbroken as I do now again.

Also my GPA will drop to a 4.0 to a 3.5-3.6, and its only my freshman year.

I have been in touch with one recruiter for a pretty long time at a local tech company, and I believe its possible to land an interview given a few keyword changes on my Resumé. They were very intrigued with my project, and reached out to me first regarding internship opportunities.

However, I don't know how much I know. I am not a master with Linux commands, nor C, nor assembly, but its all desired skills. I am just not sure if I would make it to an interview, then flunk it because I overestimate how much I know.

Should I wait to apply and improve on these skills, or just send it and apply anyways?
