I am currently taking intro to A&P and a computer science class(pre reqs for the LVN program) for my school. Now i am planning on taking Anatomy and Physiology 1, General psychology and English 1301 during the summer time(Pre reqs for RN program). Do ya'll think this is too much? I am taking intro to A&P and i feel so overwhelmed with alot of information and couldn't imagine myself taking those 3 classes during summertime. I wanted to ask you all if it is doable???i don't work by the way so it helps me alot because i have alot of time to myself to study but the question here has anyone done this before and do yall think i should take those 3 classes during summer time or am i setting myself up for failure??:'(pls help

Personally, I found Psychology extremely interesting, thus I cruised through it. There was a lot of reading for my English class, but made it through just fine. Anatomy and Physiology is definitely a heavy class... but it's a science class. I rather mix my science classes with non-science, than group them together. Science takes a lot more of my time to absorb... but that's just me.:)

However, we don't know anything about you. Personally, I find subjects like Psychology and English quite easy and fun. If you find those classes difficult and time-consuming, then just take A&P. That will be quite enough to keep you busy!

Normally I'd say it was doable, but since you're having issues now, it's better not to overload yourself.
