    Personally, I don't normally take more than 16 because as you progress in school, classes become much harder and require a lot more time and effort. I have 15 credits right now and that's 5 classes, which is just right I think.

    Plus, most people in college have a lot of bills to pay so they have to work. I work as many hours in the summer as I can to minimize the amount of hours I have to work during the school year, but I still have to get 25ish hours a week just to pay bills. If I took any more classes, I'd either fail or have to work less.

      It's different when you're taking a Political Sciences/BA major vs an actual rigorous course load...

      This dis was intended for Torbs only, any other PS/BA majors disregard that sentence 😄

        I would have to agree. Taking 18 credits worth of 100 level classes is a lot different than taking 18 credits of 400 level classes. I find that with 4/5 classes I am able to do much better in each individual class and don't feel overloaded. If you can take 18-20 credits worth of harder classes the more power to ya, but I personally can't.

          Take 20 credits of 300 & 400 level classes, then you'll figure it out. I'm taking 16 of all Busn and Acct 300 and 400's I dont think I could handle anymore...I think even this is gonna be a rough semester, and school is usually pretty easy for me.

            Part of the reason I'm not in school anymore was I was taking 18 credits, and couldn't perform in all of them. All my generals are done, but my major courses suffered because of it.

                    That would be PHRM551L, the Concept Laboratory. We also make IVs and lotions/creams/ointments. Remember that cream I gave you for that rash you told me about... Oh, sorry, forgot that was a secret...
