Hi, I wanted an opinion from you guys. Should I take chemistry and anatomy together? I don't work so I think that it would not be a problem, but I'm not sure.

This is always a hard question to answer. Generally speaking, I think it's fine to take two science classes together - but it depends on what kind of student you are, and what your science background is. I took Anatomy with Micro (along with two other classes) and everyone told me it would be too hard and that I was making a mistake, but I got straight A's. So it's doable, you just have to make sure you work hard.

If you aren't working, it is incredibly doable, working it's still doable just more of a challenge due to time restrictions, etc. Keep in mind chemistry/anatomy usually have labs in addition to lecture. You just have to be dedicated to your classes.

I am taking those 2 classes together in the fall and also not working. I think it will be totally doable but I do plan to spend 2-3 hours at school in the labs studying Mon-Thurs on top of the time in class. I don't have a strong science background and feel that I will need this.

Of course you should take chemistry and anatomy together.

I took these two classes together. In fact, I also had chemistry lab and microbiology at the same time, and all were on the 8 week accelerated classes.
Do-able? Yes. Pleasant? No. If you can take them on the normal 12/16 week class, and you're not working, then it will all depend on your own time-management and study habits, but you could do it, sure!
