I’m getting 16 this quarter and i’m pretty sure when it starts to get further into the quarter i’m going to be quite overwhelmed ha.

Answer #1

Depends on how many classes that is - colleges are different. I did 5 classes at a time in undergrad, but I’m starting grad school (at a different uni) with 1 class and 3 seminars (which are less inolved than a class in my case). That’s 15 and 10 credits respectively, so credits are pretty much arbitrary :p

Answer #2

And 4 was the average/recommended at my undergrad. A lot of people took 5 and 3 classes. Also we had semesters, but my current school is on the quarter system.

Answer #3

Hm.. well out here, most of my classes are 2-3 units, and last semester I took 5 classes.. and OMG I wanted to die lol I need to calm down with the classes next time.. It was because I took math, history, developmental health, psychology and health… sooo many reports, non stop.. I had at least 3 reports to write/ week…

Answer #4

I took 5 classes (15 credits). It was what was generally taken to graduate in the normal 4 years. It was fine.

Answer #5

I took six or seven classes for each of the three years of my undergrad degree (18 points each). For masters, I took five papers this year which were 24 points each.
