A great deal of work has gone into preparing this material and I would greatly appreciate it if you would use this only for your personal purposes.

Note About Summer Classes and Your Schedule

Be certain that you understand that a summer class contains the same material as a regular semester class but the amount of time is reduced from 15 weeks to 5 weeks. For a 2 credit hour class that means there are now 6 lecture hours per week. Assume that there are 3 additional hours associated with every lecture hour, that means you should budget 6*(1+3) = 24 hours of your time every week for this class. My thoughts:

  • Can you take another online class? probably
  • Can you take two more online classes? not reccommended
  • Can you work a full time summer job and take the class? maybe, but it will be difficult
  • Can you work a part-time summer job and take the class? probably, the online format gives you a lot of scheduling flexibility
