What are your suggestions on taking nursing 265/263 in the summer, which is only for 10 weeks? If I take it in the summer, I'll graduate at the end of the summer, but if I wait until Aug, I'll graduate in Dec.

I doubt every school has the same course numbers
so I'm sure what you're referring to when you say
nursing 265/263
but I will ask,
are you working?
do you have family commitments?
how have you done in your other courses?
are you the kind of person who can study through the summer?
if yuo do "poorly" say a grade of C, would that bother you?

What is Nursing 265/263? I've never heard of such a course. In my school the nursing courses were named Nursing 1A and Nursing 1B.
I work and yes I have a family. They range from 11-20 yrs old. I'm not upset if I make a C. I can study during the summer. I'm doing well in my other classes. I'm getting two sides to whether to take them together or not. Just wanted opinion from someone different.
It's med-surg and ob/gyn. I don't know what I was thinking. A lot of us are from different schools and I'll classes will be somewhat different, including the names. Sorry about that.
the fact that you work is my only hesitation in saying go for it
otherwise, the people in your family are old enough not to need your constant attention and you've done well in past courses
that shows that your smart enough to handle the work
it will be a lot of work crammed into a short period so you might not get A's but you say you're ok with that
I need my outside time once summer comes, but if you're disciplined enough to spend all your time inside studying, you're better than I am
so, maybe, yeah, go for it
