Online prereq at 4-year university or in-person CC?

I've been doing some course planning after wrapping up my first semester as a freshman, and I realized that I'll be doing some heavy courses next year as a sophomore. First semester of sophomore year is slated to have ochem, genetics, and physics, so I was wondering if it would be a bad idea to offload some of that this upcoming summer.

Would it be better to do the two semester physics lecture sequence online at my home university (UT Austin specifically), in-person at a cc, or should I just do it during the regular school year? I really want to get further into research and MA-ing during my sophomore year, but I don't know if I can balance that with that courseload.

Do it in person, either at your home U or a CC
Summer1/Summer2 Physics at UT is intense, you will be thinking of nothing but physics all summer but at least you won't have other tough classes at the same time.

Thank you for the quick reply! Would medical schools look down on me taking physics over the summer at a CC then, or is it fine if those are the only prereqs I'll take outside UT? I'm definitely going to be taking the labs during the regular semesters

All of the TMDSAS schools will accept CC credits, but one (UTRGV) will not accept online credits
