<p>Well, I’m taking 21 credits this semester. I’m a sophomore and I took 20 credits each semester in first year.
I only had 8 credits from AP’s</p>
<p>I don’t think 20 is that bad even, and that’s the limit at my university otherwise you need to fill out a form simply to overload on credits.
Most standard classes are 4 credits at my school. Some of the easier ones are 3.</p>
<p>So basically it was taking:
foreign language(6) <- something I enjoy
math(4)
general ed(4)
major course (4)
elective (2) <- something I enjoy</p>
<p>My current semester:
foreign language(5) <- something I enjoy
math(3)
major course(4)
general ed(4)
general ed(3)<- something I think I will enjoy
elective(2) <- something I enjoy</p>
<p>That’s not terrible is it?</p>
<p>Doing this I’ll be able to study abroad for a year (getting a scholarship that actually saves me money and taking very little credits the whole year) and also graduate a semester early (in 3.5 years) and save myself some college costs which I’m going into debt for. I have both a major and a minor.</p>
<p>I do have a life…I have a good number of friends I can talk to/study with, I go to the gym, school clubs and socialize, university events like concerts, and restaurants, cafes, shopping. I also spend a LOT of time listening to music and watching tv series and movies on my laptop… So there’s definitely enough free time.
My sleep suffers from the irregular hours of study/free time and I often procrastinate though…</p>
<p>Sometimes I wonder if the life of a normal college student is easier~</p>
