Nice that doesnt sound like too rough of a semester. Im sure the lab sciences will be a lot of work.
Im currently at a 2.66 but that includes a 0.00 from MAT 210 last semester and I should be able to get a B- this time. Im hoping to get around a 2.8-3.0 by the end of this semester
Best of luck to you!

Be careful with Intro to Chem. I dont know what school you go to but that class is always a lot tougher than it sounds. I have a friend who is a straight A/B student normally and he struggled to get a B in this class.

I got a 28 hour week coming up. How'd that compare with a college week over there? It's pretty heavy here unless you're doing Architecture. My GPA's 2.24, but it's back to zero now. It's from now on that it's counted for my degree. Which is nice.

No idea, I only have 9 hours of in-class per week. But I only take 2 of my 5 classes in-class. 3 of them are online so I have no idea really how much time per week I will have to put in
I expect to spend about 30 hours a week on school

28 hours is actuall in lecture and lab time for me. That doesn't include the crap load of time in the Lieberry I'll have to put in to do well. It's shit hard to become a teacher!

A local community college. Then I'm transfering over to a State college. I technically should be a junior this year...But I have been doing EMT things for a couple years now so no college for me haha. Now I think I want to open up a mushroom farm. So I dont know what classes to take other than business and biology. I dont think my college offers mycology.

that's the way to do it. just watch, some universities require that a certain number of credit hours were taken at their main campus before you can graduate from there
usually it isnt too high but just keep the number in mind

Then you should definitely stick around these parts! My last roommate was a genius and he was pursuing his doctorate in pharmacy or some shit. I thought he was crazy though. His only aspiration was to become a pharmacist. He could have done anything in the world. Oh well, it's his life, and if he wants to play japanesse video games and watch Sailor Moon all day then that's fine with me.  I think if i went back to school it would be for a masters in public policy of some sort or another. Good luck everyone!
