How Many Summer School Classes Should I Take?

<p>I am taking summer school classes since I failed Calculus II last semester and I want to get my general education classes over with.</p>

<p>I'm thinking of taking:</p>

<p>Calculus II For Science And Engineers (4 credits)
American Literature II (3 credits)
World Regional Geography (3 Credits)</p>

<p>Is 10 credits too much? The classes range from 1-2 months long (June 1st to July 1st/26th). I had a 2.5 GPA freshman year (which is why I'm taking summer classes) and I don't know if that's too much to handle. I'm taking classes at my local community college which should be easier compared to classes at my college.</p>

<p>Are they spread out or will they all be took at the same time?</p>

<p>If you’re taking them all at the same time that’s a lot of credits for 6 weeks of summer courses. But if you’re taking say 4 credits in 2 weeks and then the other 6 credits in six weeks then that’d be a lot easier.</p>

<p>I took 21 credits last summer. It was tough, but doable. Summer classes are easier because there are less distractions.</p>
