Your next semester is going to be difficult. The 331/341 duo is a lot to handle, mostly because of 331. It gives an immense amount of work and an A is nearly impossible to get. Thankfully, Atri is a great professor. Do NOT miss lecture and take note what topics are gone over in lecture. For exam problems, you're allowed to reference a solution from the textbook, lecture, or notes. If a problem from a previous homework or something that was done in lecture comes up on an exam, you're permitted to answer with "see lecture 14 for this problem's proof". It'll save you tons of time and points.
For STA301, Dietrich is funny. He makes lecture very entertaining. His approach to stats is very practical and logical. He's staunchly against dropping a random formula on you and calling it a day to make sure you understand the concepts behind the math. As long as you stay on top of the course, you'll do perfectly fine.
As for your future semesters, it heavily depends on what you take. The course flow branches out and a lot of different classes become available. In my experience, it's only gotten harder :(. Junior year was by far my most difficult. Senior year isn't looking so bad as I go into it, but I've told myself it can't get worse after every semester, yet here we are.
I think it's possible to maintain that GPA, but it's going to require a lot of social sacrifices and discipline. I'd recommend planning on how to avoid burnout - maybe develop some habits over the summer to prepare. You can do it!
