Digital Photography Success

Does this seem like a difficult schedule?

Design 1 - MW 9:00-11:50 (3)
Figure Drawing - MW 5:30-8:20 (3)
Metalwork - TTH 9:00-11:50 (3)
Digital Photography - MW 2:00-4:20 (3)
Weight Training - TTH 1:30-2:50 (1)
Baseball - TTH 3:00-4:20 (1)
Environmental Biology Lab - ONLINE (1)
Transfer Success - ONLINE (1)

It's 8 classes but only 16 credits. The only class that will involve a significant amount of academic work is the bio lab. Transfer Success is a required class teaching about how to adjust to a 4 year college, it doesn't really include much work. My friends say Design and Digital Photography are pretty easy but that Metalwork and Figure Drawing are 2 of the most difficult studio art classes in the program. I feel pretty good about the schedule, seems like it won't be too easy but not too difficult either. It'll be time consuming but not too academically challenging. It's just the fact that it's 8 classes that has me worried. Is that too much, even though it's only 16 credits?

I had a similar type of schedule this last semester (7 classes, 16 hours), and I found myself to be very busy. Each class, even the one-hour ones, will require its own assignments, tests, projects, papers, etc, and you could end up with as many five tests in one day (ie. your MW classes + your two online classes). If Figure Drawing, Metalwork, and your lab class are going to be your hardest classes or your classes with the most work involved, you will probably focus most of your time on those three classes, and you might lose time and focus for your other classes. Even if your other classes are pretty easy, they will still involve normal assignments which could cut into time you would like to spend on your harder classes. That said, your Transfer Success course will probably be a piece of cake, and your PE courses will probably be fine. (Although, you may still have tests and assignments. I took Bowling a few semesters ago and we had five exams!)

Another thing to consider is your midterm or third-way exam periods and your finals week. You will probably have eight finals during finals week, and possibly more in the week before that if your professors like to give out partial lecture exams as well as final exams.

I think that this schedule can be done, but it will probably be challenging in a time-management sort of way. Good luck!
