<p>hello,
i will be an eap student this year and I wonder how many courses you take per semester usually. In my home college most people take 5 courses. I have added 4 upper level courses (3 of them major) so far. Do you think it would be too demanding or it would be OK with hardwork. </p>

<p>Website suggests to take 4 courses, but I am willing to add one more course in order to have fewer courses to take when I’m back at home college.</p>

<p>3-5 primary classes is usually the norm, depending on the difficulty of said classes. 4 classes, however, is probably the most common, and the most balanced. </p>

<p>You should usually judge the workload of a schedule by the # of units it is, not by the number of classes. ~14-16 units is probably average.</p>
