Keep in mind:

You would be compressing 15 weeks into 8 weeks. (or 6 or 4)

Keep in mind that the government/accreditation assumes that for every academic hour in class, you need to do 2-3 hours of studying/reading/homework.
15 weeks/course x 3 class/week (1 hours/class + 2-3 study/homework hours/class) = 135-180 hours needed for a course
If you had 4 classes in 8 weeks, that would be around 20 hours/ class/week.x 4 classes = 80 hours/week
So no, don’t take 4 classes in 8 weeks (as was mentioned, that is full time for 15 weeks)
Take at most 2 classes and assume you will work on them 8 hours/day x 5 days/ week x 8 weeks…assume it is a full time job for 8 weeks.
