792, Start classes tomorrow.
Posted by 95_ESi_Person, Jan-09-06 08:57 PM
yeah, 3 classes = 9 credit hours this semester.

Oddly enough this is considered full time as a graduate student... good for me!

These classes are a bitch so I'm taking my time, took 12 hours last semsester and got a 3.25 (not able to become a GA now).

Taking: Industrial Productivity Analysis, Industrial Simulation, and Leadership in Technology.


I'm looking forward to this semester, 2 classes on Tuesdays, and 1 on Wednesdays... that's all!

i guess it all depends on whether or not you work and how much free time you want to have. i work close to 30 hours a week on top of school so i refuse to do more than 12 credit hours since it wouldnt leave me much time for being with my gf and hanging out with friends.

Shit one semester I worked 35-40 hours from 6pm-2am, then had 12 hours of classes, worked at the school for 4 hours a day, & did my internship of 4 hours a day. That shit sucked ass...

Woo hoo, I'm the winner! Right now I'm finishing up 21 credits, next semester I'll have 24. I still have 2 or 3 weeks before exams too. Damn the late German system.

I'm at 18 credits starting Monday. I have done 18 for the past two semesters before this. It's really not too bad until finals week, then it can get rough if you have exams in all the classes. When I am done with this semester, second of my sophmore year, I will have completed 80.5 credits. I didn't come in with any, but I take summer courses.

People say I'm crazy but to be honest I enjoy the challenge. I don't complain about my work load and I find time to do plenty of other activities/organizations at school. I am on track to graduate with three majors and a minor in four years from a well respected college.


Good luck to everyone else who is starting or already started their semester.

I'm only taking 12 hours. It's my last semester, and I'm only going to a 2 year school. So I don't have much to worry about. My only problem is that I've always had issues with school, mostly just the homework part, but I think I'm over that this semester. :)

1 more semester after this one, that's if I don't go to summer semester. Then I'll have finished my masters and I'll be ready to try to find a job.
