I am doing college so I am thinking that I would buy parallels desktop 5 in-case I would require to work a windows program which is intended for a class. I was thinking if there was a method to set up together boot camp and a Virtual Machine using the similar separation.

Boot Camp is not required. If you don't recognize why you would desire to utilize Boot Camp, then pay no attention to it. Utilize Boot Camp if you desire to boot your Mac straightly into Windows. This would be utilized for improved compatibility with machine and improved processing and graphics presentation since it won't be allotting assets with Mac OS X. later than you set up Windows to a Boot Camp separation you can utilize the separation with Parallels and still utilize it to boot your Mac. One drawback is that you can't utilize snapshots through a Boot Camp partition.
