I'm currently a college freshman and I'm planning on taking Orgo 1 and Physics 1 (Algebra-based) during Summer Session 1 and Orgo 2 and Physics 2 (Algebra-based) during Summer Session 2. Each summer session is 6 weeks and I won't be taking the labs for either subjects over the summer, strictly the lecture components. The way the scheduling is set up, I'd have orgo from 9:30 am-10:45 am and physics from 6:30 pm-8:15 pm every day. So I would have a considerable amount of time on my hands to conquer the material for both classes.
I'm doing this so I can take human phys and biochem my sophomore year (I'll have my premed reqs completed by then) in order to study and do well on the MCAT between my sophomore and junior year.
I already know the pros and cons of taking either class over the summer (focus on one subject, understand it better, and ultimately get a better grade). However, how hard will it be to take both over the summer? To anyone that's done it: is it feasible? I'm pretty confident in my abilities as a student, but I just want to receive some insight before I make this decision. If it's important to know, I've taken AP Physics 1 and 2 (algebra based) in high school so I have a pretty strong background with Physics. Thanks so much.
