I need help with this?

College Life

<p>I have to choose between two schedules, I need some advice:</p>

<p>Option A:</p>

<p>Monday/Wednesday
08:30 - 09:45 am - Abnormal Psychology
11:30 - 12:45 pm - General Chemistry I
01:00 - 03:45 pm - Chemistry Lab I (Monday only)</p>

<p>06:00 - 08:45 pm - General Biology I (On a different campus, it only takes me 35 minutes driving to this campus, and it is 15 minutes away from my house)</p>

<p>PreCalculus online</p>

<p>or </p>

<p>Option B</p>

<p>Monday/ Wednesday
08:30 - 09:45 am - Abnormal Psychology
11:30 - 12:45 pm - General Chemistry I
01:00 - 03:45 pm - Chemistry Lab I (Monday only)</p>

<p>Tuesday/ Thursday</p>

<p>08:30 - 11:15 am - General Biology I</p>

<p>Precalculus online</p>

<hr>

<p>Option A;
Pros: I can work full time, the professor is easier compared to Option B.
Cons: I have to drive to another campus (even though it is closer to my home compared to the main campus). I might be tired to do evening class (however I have never tried this before) </p>

<p>Option B:
Pros: Allows me to study more, the professor might not be the easiest, but I heard he is one of the best professor on campus.
Cons: I can not work full time. I will have to work part time, because I work night shift and I can’t go to school after work. I am too tired after work. </p>

<p>Any advice?</p>

<p>I would personally choose option A, but I can think of very good arguments for option B. This’ll depend on you.</p>

<p>Do you need to work full time for financial reasons? If you need to work full time or if working full time would significantly decrease your financial burden, the choice is obvious–you have to do what you have to do.</p>

<p>If you have the freedom to work part time and still make do, then I would consider whether you are more of a night owl or a morning person. I worked nights, so I was much more alert during the afternoon or evening, as opposed to the morning. Your Mondays and Wednesdays would be long days, but is it worth it to not have class on Tuesday/Thursday. Would you be able to focus if you had an exam at 6pm if you’ve been in class all day?</p>

<p>Also, you can consider it from a cost perspective. How much extra would it cost to drive to the other campus compared to driving to campus for your Tues/Thurs class (perhaps, also factoring in working part time vs. full time)? Is that cost worth it to you?</p>

<p>Alternatively, there is much to be said about having a great professor, especially if you are a biology major.</p>
