Finish Physics sequence or start Organic Chem?

I am in post bacc finishing up my pre-reqs and trying to raise my gpa since it is a little below average. I just finished taking Physics 1 this semester. Should I start Organic in the Fall? or finish Physics 2 in the Fall and start Organic in the Spring? (I refuse to take them together) thanks.

Are those your only classes you are taking?

Go for both of them! I just finished up my last semester of pre-reqs where I took Orgo 2 and Physics 2, both with labs, and earned all A's. Not to boast, but I worked 3 jobs while getting married and having a kid. You would be surprised at how much time you have. Wake up early - Stay up Late!

I will be taking A&P 1 with whichever I decide to take. I also work 4-5 days a week.

If I were you I would focus on O-Chem so you can get to your DAT as quickly as possible. Personally, I saved Physics 2 until after I apply this summer as I didn't see a point in rushing to take it when I could take upper level bios and O-chems before I applied as I felt they showed more about my future as a dental student.
