For Those Of You Who Work Full Time And Are Going To School How Many Classes Are You Taking With A&p1?
I Am Going To Be Starting A&p1 Next Semester And I Have Been Told It Is Extremely Hard And Requires Alot Of Memorization. Obviously I Have To Get An Awesome Grade In This Class Because It Is A Pre-req For Nursing School. I Also Work Fulll Time And Dont Want To Take Too Many Classes And Screw Up In This Class.
Should I Take It By Itself To Ensure I Do Good And Give It My 100% Concentration, Or Should I Try To Take It With Maybe Sociology?
Or Will I Be Ok Taking It With 2 Other Classes? I Just Dont Know What To Expect.

My full-time job is taking care of my kids - I probably get a little more study time than a working person, but not a lot. I started this semester with A&P I, Organic Chem, and Physics I. It was killing me and I was doing mediocre in all 3. I withdrew from Organic and now I'm fine focusing on the other 2. If you memorize easily, then you probably wouldn't have trouble taking sociology at the same time.

AP is not extremely hard, you just have to study, that's it. I am taking AP1 and algebra and working full time, I have two kids and I am doing well in both of my classes. English is my second language and a lot of times I have to look up in the dictionary for translation. It is really up to you and how much time you are able and will devote to your classes. I took cell biology online and pre-algebra together this past summer semester and I got A in algebra and B in science. I new that I could get A in biology but then, my kids would not see me for those 5 weeks so I decided that B would work for me. It is really up to you and how seriously you will take all of this.
