Overloading is very easy to do in college and can have very negative consequences. You might start out the semester thinking that everything is going fine, but when midterms and papers start coming up, things get intense very quickly. Taking a balanced course load is not only important for your grades, it’s also much better for your learning experience and overall college experience. When you have too many classes, you may find yourself doing the bare minimum to get by, rather than engaging with the material and going to office hours. Not all classes have the same amount of work, so my advice would be to take two to three difficult classes, one or two moderately difficult ones, and one easier class.
