HunterJohnson Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 This is my first semester taking more than 15 units. I have always worked and taken 12 units but now I'm taking 21 units but NOT working. Has anyone on here taken 21 units? I need to maintain a 3.5 GPA to keep my academic scholarship. Here's my course load Business Law Intro to Business Marketing Business writing and case analysis Management Information Systems Theology I Theology II Old Testament History All 3 unit classes and I am a business major and a theology minor. I want your advice/encouragement or if I should drop back to an 18 unit load.

mothra Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 I did 21 and 24 for the first few semesters. Never again. I consider myself very smart but 24 is just retarded to do. 21 is border line. I worked 30 hrs per week when I took 24 but was doing school work while working. Best advice I can give you, plan out your entire week and make sure you plan out shorter study times but frequent. Studying for an hour didn't help me. I gave each subject 20 minutes and I went to all the extra stuff that was offered even though I knew what they were going over. BTW I had a 4.0 for all the semesters I did over 18 credits. All the free time when I did less credits just gave me time to party and get into trouble. if nothing changes, nothing changes You don't know what you don't know, till you don't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterJohnson Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Thanks for your experience! Gives me some hope since the most I've taken is 15 units, but worked during that time. Makes sense to only do 20 min per section or else it's too draining Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afficionado Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Since you're taking classes that are very similar it shouldn't be too bad, a lot of information will be overlapping and a lot of it you will already know. If you have any questions relating to nutrition, lifting, or health in general, feel free to give me a PM and I will give you straight forward advice with no BS involved.

OrionStang Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Whats the hurry? Does your scholarship have a time limit that you won't meet if you don't overload yourself? SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HunterJohnson Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Whats the hurry? Does your scholarship have a time limit that you won't meet if you don't overload yourself? Long story short is, if I don't take a huge load I will need an additional semester to graduate. My scholarship is minimal to the actual cost of going to school. At 40k a year another semester will cost an additional 20k.

At 40k a year another semester will cost an additional 20k. So the scholarship wouldn't cover that extra $20K? Not trying to bash your decision, just curious. Good for you getting a full scholarship BTW. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HunterJohnson Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Yeah my scholarship is only 10% of the actual cost. I go to BIOLA, it's a private Christian university Scion tC SQ BuildiPad mini, lots of fabrication, daily drivenFord Explorer C Pillar Wall Build Just a cheap car to destroy with bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
