Hey guys, I just want to hear your opinions.

So basically I still need to take Physics II (1000 lv, part II) before I graduate, and I'm thinking of taking it along with other time-consuming bio courses, like cell bio, genetics, along with 2 other courses that require a lot of memorization.

In your opinion, do you think it's wise to just take it and get it over with it, even though there is a high gpa risk?

Or, replace it with an easier, but elective-wasting, course to boost up the gpa? Mind you, my freshman gpa is so horrifying that you wouldn't want to look at it.

if you think you cant handle it then dont end of story...though honestly that schedule sounds like a normal schedule for people. If you already did poor before no reason to start again.

It depends on what your capacities as a student are. In my opinion, that schedule doesn't look hard. Physics is great in the sense that it's nowhere near as time consuming as bio courses. Once you get a concept, it just sticks in your head and reviewing it is not very time-consuming.

If you do go through with taking physics along with your other classes, make sure you understand the concepts in physics. Studying for exams is basically doing a bunch of practice problems and that's it. If you understand the stuff, studying for the final (which is likely to be cumulative) takes a few hours of refreshing the old stuff. That's what I loved about physics; once you got something, you didn't need to spend hours and hours studying.
