I'm set up for 19 credits next semester (all upper level courses except for 1, 1 credit online course) and can't get them all to fit (they all overlap).

If I can convince one professor to maybe change a course I can get my schedule to work............................ now what are the odds of that? (Not likely)

So, the other option I have is to take online courses at this other University (large state U, has a med school I plan to apply to.... my parents are alumni it in another state but they'll charge me in-state) But I think I'm willing to try.


Is there any other options anyone can think of, any tips?


Edit: If it matters I'm still working full time as the lone tech in charge of a lab (this includes phleb duties now).

Edit: I was kinda hoping someone had been in a similar position. Guess not.
What cool about this online thing is that some of the classes I take are purely because I plan to med school and have no impact on my Degree. In addition professors (at least at my school most are nice enough) will routinely wave pre-req requirements for a class if you can somehow demonstrate any sort of proof you don't need it (like it didn't transfer over).

I believe lectures are recorded if I speak with the professor now before class starts in January. I'll get him to work with me in some manner, from rate my professor I'm aware he has in class assignments. I could stop by his office at night to do them. I just need to find him as he isn't on campus for Fall semester.

Also, I have a Micro lab course that I need to be 20 minutes late for. Currently in my Chemistry labs, this semester, I have an A and I usually work on finding the in-class results outside of class so I can get out of there and on to the next one. Furthermore, I aced Clinical Microbiology (6 credit course) in the past and I'm not very worried about the lab, I'm willing to work alone without a lab partner if need be.

What's the rush?

What's the rush?

If I can kill off enough courses now I can take the MCAT earlier in the long run and also have lighter course loads with which to do GPA buffering if need be. Also, I'd like to do some research this summer or next. The farther I get the more rigid my schedule gets and I'd rather just deal with this problem now.
