Hey guys!
I'm looking at registering for fall classes and trying to plan out my last 2 semesters. Due to taking summer classes and having credits from high school, I'll be essentially done with my degree after fall semester, save for 1 class I need for my minor that's basically a thesis-writing course. So it looks like I'll be taking classes both semesters, but as I already have a minor and am not interested in starting another (and have taken my fair share of interesting electives), I won't necessarily be able to fill up that semester with other classes.
So my question is, would it be a bad idea to be a part-time student in the spring semester of my senior year (taking 1 or 2 classes)? If I did this, I would search for a job as a vet tech (I already know of one clinic that would be likely to train me) to fill my time/get experience. My other option is to take the class I need, along with some classes that might help in the future for vet school (i.e. Anatomy, Physiology) but it feels like a bit of a waste since I would be taking them again in vet school, albeit a more rigorous version.
Also, I'm applying for entrance in Fall 2016.
Thanks for the help in advance!
