Student looking for advice

Hello!

I’m planning on interning at a boutique this summer. I already talked with the MD and we arranged for it to be part time during May and June (due to uni) and FT during July.

My main worry is that since I will be taking a lot of modules during the part time period, my performance at work might be hindered significantly.

I was thinking of dropping 1 class in order to lighten my workload, at the same time - I’m also worried about being behind academically.

Any tips or suggestions?

For context: Sophomore student in LatAm. Currently doing a search fund internship, previously did a pricing and forecasting one
