This semester I took 4 science classes (all lectures) and did good. I was also working about 15 hours pt. For fall I want to take 6 upper division science classes. I won't be working pt. Do you think it'll be too much? I'm planning to take:

-Medical Microbiology
-Biochemistry II
-Cell Bio Lab
-Microbio Lab
-Molecular Genetics
-Human Sexuality

Since when did Human Sexuality count as an upper division science course?

Good thing it wasn't a grammar class. :laugh:

H.Sex wasn't upper division at my UG, but it was one of the best classes I've ever taken. Retained more information from it than a lot of my pre-reqs.

Doesn't sound too bad. I took Ochem II w/ lab, Bio II w/ lab, Physics II w/ lab, and a sports psychology class one semester. It was a lot of class but you can do it assuming that you do not have to spend a lot of hours working each week. Just plan to be in class approximately 20+ hours a week.

Oh stop being a grammer nazi, we all understood what the OP was talking about.:thumbdown: To the OP, yes it sounds doable if you are not working. Good luck!
 
6 with labs might be a little too much. Maybe drop it down to 5 and see how you perform. If you're not in a hurry to graduate, then there's no point in cramming all those courses at once and risk doing poorly. :)

It's actually 4 lectures and 2 labs. I finished microbiology and cell bio lectures already. I wouldn't be able to do 6 with labs lol.

Totally doable... This is really (IMO) three upper div science courses, two labs, and one general education course.
