Is it a good idea to take Calc 2 and Engineering Physics in the summer?

In summary, the speaker has had to take prerequisite courses for Math, causing their academic schedule to be disrupted. To maintain a full-time schedule, they plan to take Calc2 and Engineering Physics 1 during the summer. They are seeking advice on whether this is a good idea for getting good grades and retaining enough information for future classes. The response is that it is doable but will require a significant amount of out-of-class time for learning and practice.

I've had to take a handful of prerequisites for Math and it's caused my academic schedule to get jacked up - To keep a full-time load in each semester I will have to take Calc2(4 credits) and Engineering Physics 1(4 credits) during next summer (eight week session). It would be a Mon-Thursday schedule.
Could I please get some advice on this...
Is it a good idea for the sake of getting A's? Is it possible? Even if yes to both, will I retain enough information for future classes at this pace?
Thanks!

That sounds more than doable, but you will have to put in a significant amount of out-of-class time learning/studying the material and perhaps doing extra problems for the practice that is not given due to the short semester length.
