I'm currently at community college on a quarter system and taking 19 units, which is very manageable because I don't have a job. I'd like to transfer in the fall (living at home is very uncomfortable now that I'm out of the closet and left the church), but to do that I need to overload on courses for winter and spring. Is taking 25 units next quarter overly ambitious? 17 of those units would be for GE online classes and the other 8 units would be for field/lab classes. Any student taking 12 or more units is considered full-time.
Worst case scenario is probably that I take on more than I can handle, drop a class or two early in the quarter, and have to wait until spring to transfer. Having said that, I'd still appreciate any advice. I've tried looking it up and asking around, but haven't found anything very useful (in part, I'm sure, because it depends so much on which specific classes you take). Just thought it was worth asking.
