I'm only taking 12. I didn't even want to consider more. I'm taking A&P1 w/ lab and chem1041 w/ lab concurrently and then a womens studies global perspectives class online.

I'm taking 1o hours. Psychology (3), Sociology (3), and Biology (4).
This is my very first semester of prereqs, and I haven't been in school for 23 years.

I'm taking 14...and I'm thinking now that I've gone a little crazy. I'm hoping I'm not biting off too much!

I have toyed with the idea of taking more, but since I have previously been taking classes through the UoP online (working towards a different degree alltogether for a year before I decided to abandon that for my life-long true goal of becoming a nurse) and am used to taking only one 5-week class at a time, thought I'd better start out small. Sooo, I am taking 7 credits only - A&P I and Human Growth and Development. I will probably wish I had taken more later, but better to regret it this way than to wish I hadn't taken so many and struggle with a bad grade (at least, that's what I keep telling myself).

I'm also taking classes at a community college and university. I have about 20 units I will be trying to finish. I'm taking A&P, chemistry at community college level and I will be taking two required humanities, first aid and a required p.e class. I have to do it this way because i'm thinking about applying to a adn program and a bsn program I just want to keep my options open. I'm not working right now and don't plan on working. I can't do both and concentrate on trying to get good grades. If i do work it will probably be on campus. I plan on applying for many scholarship to help me through school.

It looks like everyone plans on keeping very busy this fall either with full time classes or a work/class/family combo!

I hear that. My daughter is captain of the Freshman cheerleading team at her high school. She has tumbling on Wednesdays after school, then she goes to church Wednesday night. Thursdays are the Freshman football games, 2 a night...A team and B team, and she cheers for both. Fridays are the varsity games, and it is mandatory for her to be there in uniform during at least half of the home games. (Maybe all since she made captain....guess I need to find that out!) AND.....Since I am "team-mom", and a big football fan, I have to be at all the games!

The little one wants to play softball...not sure how that will be sqeezed in. ugggggh

Yeah, I think taking Fall off is a good thing for me to do. lol
