Too much A&P?

stpauligirl · Nov 22, 2005

Hey everyone,
Once again, I am in need of some advice. I finally decided to drop A&P 1 Lab, due to my poor grades. My advisor registered me for A&P 1 Lab next semester along with A&P 2 Lecture and Lab. If I had trouble keeping up my grades this semester, how on earth will I do it in the spring with TWO labs? If I keep this schedule, I will be taking:
A&P 1 Lab
A&P 2 Lecture
A&P 2 Lab
Human Growth & Development
English Comp 2
Art Appreciation
Do you think I should do it, or just take A&P 1 Lab, and then A&P 2 by itself during the summer? *sigh* I know A&P is very important, so I don't want to put myself in a situation where I can't keep up again. What should I do? (I know some people take many more hours than this, but I work and go to school)

You are lucky that you cn drop one part, ours is all together and it's like taking 2 super hard classes! Take one at a time so that you can make a good grade, good luck and hang in there :)

If it were me I'd take them seperate. So much to learn. Growth and development kind of goes hand in hand though.

Ours is together as well.. you can't pass the class w/ out passing both lab + lecture.

However..if I were you and it wasn't setting me back..I'd take A+p over the summer. I did it that way. They are both monster classes and if you dont have a lot of free time...your schedule seems packed.

Good luck!

Your question is reasonable. I would take fewer classes even if it took me a little bit longer to graduate. It is better to take less classes and score high grades that overload and score "so-so" grades.

Good luck in whatever you decide. :)
