Is 17 credit hours a lot or is it manageable?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Indiana University - Bloomington

<p>This is what my schedule is going to look like:</p>

<p>CSCI-C 211 - 4 credits
Math-M 301 (Linear Algebra w/Applications) - 3 credits
Math-M 311 (Calc 3) - 4 credits
Econ-E 202 - 3 credits</p>

<p>Total comes to 14. </p>

<p>I have an option to add Eng-W 131 just so I can get the requirement out of the way and so I'm not wasting money since I'm paying a standard fee to take anywhere between 12-17 credit hours. I'm just trying not to waste money here.</p>

<p>A friend of mine who's a history major told me 17 credit hours is too much.</p>

<p>Another friend of mine who's an econ major told me it's manageable.</p>

<p>Another friend of mine who's a neuroscience major said it's manageable, but not worth the stress.</p>

<p>Who should I listen to? I want enough time outside of class for studying, socializing, participating in extracurriculars, the gym, and possibly a job that's around 10 hours a week.</p>

<p>By socialize I mean go out on Friday and Saturday nights.</p>

<p>If it is your freshman year I would recommend not taking 17. You’ll want time to adjust.</p>

<p>Seems doable if you’re really motivated. Sounds like math hell to me though haha</p>
