Is this a heavy course load - UofT

[Lawhopeful123]

I'm a second-year UofT student, and I'm wondering if this is a heavy course load for the fall, given that the recruit also adds additional weight. 

 

Evidence - 4 credits

Admin - 4 credits 

Secured transactions - 4 credits 

Trusts - 3 credits 

 

I'm thinking of switching evidence for another 3-credit course, but I'm not sure how much of a difference that would make. Thank you!

I can’t believe you even got Cognomos to work, congrats!

Yeah, that's kinda a heavy course load. Switch out one of the 4 credit courses for an easy paper-based course. Also, while I haven't taken Trusts, it's apparently somewhat on the heavier side for a 3 credit course.

How many credits should we be aiming for per semester?

14-16, I believe. Not including the intersession if you haven't done it yet.

I suggest taking a close look at the exam schedule (assuming these are 100% final exam courses). If you have exams two days in a row, this might give you an idea of a course you could drop and replace. On the other hand, if you have time between exams, it may be doable.
