Are summer classes worth taking so I have less classes during the semester?

I want to take anatomy over the summer, but I don't know if I should.

It's a good question, Norah. I did physics as a summer course while a pre-med student in college and it turned out to be an excellent decision for me. It allowed me to focus exclusively on what was difficult material (for me) and getting a good grade in it -- primarily because I didn't have any other courses to be working on at the same time. Plus, the subsequent fall semester was easier knowing I had physics already out of the way. The downside, especially with pre-med science courses, is that you will be packing the same amount of challenging material into fewer weeks. Those will be really intense weeks -- no summer vacation, no time to do anything else including a summer job, etc. So those would be the variables I would consider as you decide (along with your advisors and parents) about what to do.

Best of luck!
