The first statement doesn’t seem so bad. The latter one does. Aren’t most courseloads 48 units, as stated [url=<a href=“http://www.mitadmissions.org/topics/life/workplay_balance_at_mit/index.shtml]here[/url”>Clubs & activities | MIT Admissions]here[/url</a>]? So if this particular class is 24 units, doesn’t that make one’s courseload 60 units? Ouch. And add the extra uncounted for hours you stated…
I’m kind of wondering something. If a college [one different from MIT] has a similar/higher number of ‘units’ per week than MIT for a certain major - then that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s more difficult, does it?</p>
