not well enough
I think I could handle an online Psych class. But, no, apparently not. I know mom's worried about me "burning out" as a freshman at the UofA. but wasn't UHS basically a burnout immunity seminar? Maybe it's just that I'm so antsy and ready for school to get here (How sad is that?) The odds are I'm probably severely underestimating the behemoth that might be college, but after talking to one of my future roommates, I seriously think I could tackle it. Awhile ago I commented to myself that I've determined that I am NOT, in fact, indecisive, but rather that I just like learning and want to learn AMAP ASAP.
Though I did get an Office Depot application. So if anyone has any serious objections, may they speak now or forever hold their piece. Though OD admitted that they were looking mostly for tech people, at which point I laughed awkwardly and quietly left the building. Cuz scholarships and parents can't pay for everything. That, and buying a crapload of paper, art supplies, and folders for FOUR DOLLARS makes me very happy. NO, really, they have 10packs of markers for 40 cents, so I got two! YAY! (limit 5 or something)
But online Psych 101 has only 3 TESTS! That's it! NO homework! As long as I did fine on those I think I'd be ok. Though I am an honors student...so I'd need to keep the 3.5 or whatever it is GPA. Poo. If only I knew....

I took a psych telecourse at Pima a couple summers ago. From what I understand, it's popular with UA students getting basic requirements out of the way. It was incredibly easy and even mildly amusing at times as the TV professor guy had this dorky moustache-goatee thing going and talked funny. It was two tests that were both very easy, plus a couple chapter summaries. I did most of my reading at the library when the Info Desk wasn't busy, and passed with flying colors. So, if a post-sophomore year Elise can do it without breaking a sweat, so can you. Just make sure you don't put off doing the reading. If my college will give me credit for it (oh please please please let them say yes, I want to get out of psych so I can take bio so I can take neuroscience...god I'm a nerd) - that's an entirely different question.
