    Have you gone over this with your academic advisor? Can you handle 19 credits in the fall of 2014, when you only have 7 in spring of 2015?

    I haven't. That's why I was asking. This is just a rough draft so the advisor knows what I have in mind because in the school I'm going to, you have to make up your own schedule, & I wanted to see what she says. The reason why I did so much then so little is because those last 7 are to finish off. The last 7 credits also ask for previous classes that I have to do later off. It's not that I actually wanted only 7 credits.

    Your lab classes will take up quite some time. I think you shouldn't take more than 2 per term. Your advisor may feel the same way. Three may be pushing it, but 4 is too many.

    Thank you! I was going for Medicine, but I recently changed. I'm in high school finishing up, but I'm getting my first 2 years done too because I was taking college courses while taking high school classes, & that's going to help me a lot! I'll let you guys know.
