Summer School?
Hey guys,
I decided to take 2 Eng level 1 courses in summer, one each term. In as much as I will need to be in Hamilton for the entire summer, I was debating if I should double my course load and do 2 courses each semester. This will get rid of my electives. Or should I just focus on my two courses which aren't exactly my strong points? Any thoughts or suggestions regarding some relatively easy summer courses?
Thanks!

If you have time and nothing else to do, do 4 courses, get rid of D04 and C03, and 2 electives. Will make 1st year a lot lighter

Keep in mind that summer courses are typically ~6 weeks long, and can be much more rushed than regular fall/winter term courses. If your two Eng classes are time consuming, and not your strongest courses, I'd suggest focusing on them during the summer. Electives aren't much work during the shool year, usually.
