My personal advice is if you can take summer classes\u2019 online do it, best decision I made. If you want to travel and work you have more flexibility to do so. This summer session I am taking two classes, one online and one at the college. So here are a few things I do to prepare myself:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Do:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Get an agenda, keep everything super organized.<\/li>\n<li>Get to know your professor, summer classes go quickly and are a full class packed into a few weeks, so you never know when you will need help.<\/li>\n<li>Only take 1-2 classes per summer session, it is a lot to take in.<\/li>\n<li>Check when your class starts, usually it\u2019s only a short period of time after your semester ends.<\/li>\n<li>Register to classes early, summer gets full quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Don&#8217;t wait till the last minute.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t try to write your papers or assignments at the beach, bringing your laptop or wok isn\u2019t always the smartest idea.<\/li>\n<li>Take a bunch of classes at different colleges to try and get the most of your summer classes, trust me stick to one to two.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t wait till your semester ends to register, most people do this in case they fail they have a backup but always register as soon as you are allowed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Do you have any tips for summer classes? Do you prefer online or in class?
