<p>MaxEllis, how do you plan on taking 16 and 19 credits over the summer?</p>
<p>That looks like the best case scenario with nothing ever going wrong. You have to account for the fact that some classes aren't offered over the summer and the ones that are may not be applied to your degree. So, in essence, you're taking them for fun.</p>
<p>Also, I don't think he's accounting for the inevitability that some classes will be difficult. Plus, looking at his majors, where in the world is the time alloted for an internship or three? Those majors, when looking at jobs post-grad encourage experience. He's planned this out like college is going to be a cakewalk lol.</p>

Won't you have a problem with no longer being classified as "full time"? This can have serious implications, such as the loss of health coverage.

<p>I already am on my own health coverage since I moved out of state and pay all of my expenses in order to get instate tuition. Even if it may be excessive, at least I've learned quite a bit about living independently.</p>
<p>I spent one weekend where I didn't have any homework just planning out a schedule so that I wouldn't have to spend 5 years at college like a lot of people I know, and I ended up planning every class I want to take (as long as I don't switch majors). For summer school, I will spend May 12-June 18 taking 5 cr at my regular college and from June 13-July 27 taking 14 cr at my local cc (but I will be taking most of them online). My reg. college treats transfer cr. as pass/fail, so as long as I get a C or above it doesn't matter to them or my GPA.</p>
<p>My school is one the quarter system so it's actually "winter term" that just started, but I'm taking 14. I'll take 12-15 next term.</p>
<p>Oh, and I have a plan similar to maxellis'. Go planning freaks! It actually changes all the time (you HAVE to be open to change!) but I like having my plan there anyway. It helps facilitate and ease the changes, at the very least. :)</p>
<p>My school's on the quarter system too. I'm taking 23 (full time = 13). Slightly afraid of dying, but hopefully will be okay. Only 10 weeks left!</p>
<p>15, three 4-credits and a 3-credit. i feel like that is way below what i usually roll with (last semester i took 19, and freshman year i took 18 both semesters) but my grades took a hit this past semester because i also had a job. unfortunately, quitting my job is not an option, so i have to scale back on academics. 15 or 16 is generally the average at my school, though.</p>
