<p>whats a good number of classes to take per quarter? if you are going to give your answer in units, i dont know what that means so would you mind explaining...Thanks</p>
<p>most people take 4 classes each quarter but if you have lots of AP credits then you may be able to get by only taking 3 each quarter. You will always take at least three and 5 is considered to be crazy overload.....so there's at least a range for you :)</p>
<p>I took 3-5, with an average of 4.</p>
<p>how can averge be 4, but crazy be 5.. one class make that much difference?</p>
<p>YES!<br>
well actually it really depends on the classes, you can't always judge by units. My roommate's taking 20 units, and I'm taking 16, but I spend a lot more time studying and such than she does, because I'm taking all math/science classes and she's taking GEs</p>
<p>Four. Three if they're all difficult ones.</p>
<p>you should check to see how many classes you need to graduate. i graduated with a math/econ degree and i think i've only taken one or two quarters (most) of 4 classes each. i could've graduated early but ended up taking 2 core classes and one "fun" class during the last year and a half of my stay there.</p>
<p>yeah most people take 3 a quarter, and only 4 when necessary.</p>
<p>3, preferably 4 classes a quarter is the average pace. </p>
<p>but make sure your unit load averages out to about 15 units a quarter, because THAT's what's gonna keep you on track to graduate in 4 years (unless you have a major that you can finish fast and have AP/IB credit to fill in the rest of the units)</p>
<p>as an incoming freshmen, i would advise 3 classes so you can better adapt to the quarter system. take a fiat lux or two if you need more units. fiat luxes are 1-unit seminars on some pretty interesting topics.</p>
