fall semester course load planning: how many credits is too many?

I know there are a million study tip posts but hear me out because this is different.

What really bugs me is that most of the information out there is either outdated or just wrong. People are making decisions based on stuff from six months ago and the landscape has changed completely since then. That’s why I wanted to put this together.

I spent way too much time on this honestly but I think it was worth it. The key insight is that there’s no one size fits all answer here. What works for one person might not work for another and that’s ok. The important thing is to find what works for you.

Hope this helps someone out there. Let me know if you have questions and I’ll try to answer them.
