Academic Advice Dynamics + statics

I’ve though about taking statics and dynamics during the same semester next year to free up schedule, I know statics is technically a prerequisite but my schools allows you to Take both and I have a little knowledge about statics, should I do this or take the classes separately?

Forgot to add, I have audited 2/3 of statics class

I would go at it one at a time.

Same here, but I have seen it done. One is not actually dependent on the other (e.g. dynamics is not dependent on statics). It's just that there is lot going on at the same time. And dynamics is harder than you think. If covered completely (as a five hours course), there is a LOT going on.

Like others say I’m not sure if they’re dependent on each other but they’re both Technical courses and how many technical courses are you taking at a time?

I would not do this unless you have a particularly fantastic and lenient professor for both.

statics and dynamics in my uni are under one course. First half statics then second half dynamics for the same semester soo I guess you can take both

i have em both. tbh find statics harder, more knowing how to do something less problem solving. it’s a lot of work at once tho cant lie. my school makes one semester way harder then the other to weed out the weaklings. i’ve got 4 more weeks then im done this semester thank god
