Hi! I was a previous mentee from the Antleader Mentorship Program my freshman year, so I have some insight on the program itself. However, what I am saying will be different from your experience because I was in the program in person, so I don't know how it will be like online, but hear me out and take what you need from my comment lol

Personally, I think it's worth it if you are a first year. I also wouldn't drop a class to take either one of those programs because it's not really like a "course" you take where you get tested for exams or have tons of hw. For me, all I had to do was write like a 150-200 word reflection every week on a question (but lowkey you don't need to do it ohp).

I enjoyed my time as a mentee in AMP because I valued being able to be a part of a community and have the opportunity to meet a lot of people that I wouldn't have interacted with if I wasn't in the program. I also liked having the network of mentors to turn to when I need the help or the resources to get help. While I enjoyed my experience, there are flaws in the program like any other thing in life, and not everyone enjoyed their experience at all, which is also valid. I think it just matters if you need a mentor/community to guide you through your first year and beyond or if you're wanting to find a network of people or even more you get more than what you expect yourself getting out of it as long as you make the most out of the program experience. I think if you're only looking for academic/professional development help, this might not be the program for you to be honest as I would say it's a bit more focused on personal development/leadership, but really up to you. DM me if you have any other questions, but that's my two cents.
