Plan 1 or Plan 2?!

I was able to sign on myucdavis today. My registration date for Fall 2008 showed up on the front page. They haven't sent me anything regarding this but I know that I have to decide which plan to carry out soon.



Returning F08 Pros:

1. Don't have to stress as much on registering for classes for Winter.

2. Enough upper division units from major and prepharm prerequisites.

3. Get to start research.

4. Get away from home.

5. Get back to my EC's



Returning F08 Cons:

1. It's Davis.

2. More demanding schedule/more stress.

3. Most likely will have Nasiri for CHE118A.

4. Complications will be greater if my MG flares.

5. Have to get into Physics I this summer at CC

6. Prepharm prerequisites won't be fulfilled by the end of this year.
7. More expensive (ie, living, tuition)
8. Will be a year behind regarding ochem (a prereq for a lot of the classes I need).
9. Can't shoot for applying to USN for the entering class of 2010.
Edit...
I think I'm going to shot for both my plans right now. So, I'm going to continue to stick with ochem this summer. I'm already enrolled in ochem II for fall at another JC. I'm going to register for classes at Davis next week just in case. I lose some money but at least I'll be secure. If I get all the classes I planed for fall at JCs then I'll stick to plan 1. Since the first day of class starts over a month before Davis' I'll know whether or not to cancel my enrollment. If I have to go back to Davis, plan 2 won't go as smoothly because I would have taken ochem instead of physics during the summer, meaning the earliest I'll be able to graduate is Summer2010. Not to mention, I'll have to scramble finding a place to live.
