You'll be fine then. The work will pile up every now and then but you'll manage. Only problem I see is you won't have much free time to work on your thesis if you need to.

Not starting thesis work until January, which is a big thing.
So, 3hrs is an undergrad course for grad credit (just have to do a final report to get the grad credit)
3hrs is a cake class
2hrs is thesis writing which is cake too
2 courses (7hrs) will be difficult
and 1hr credit is a friday afternoon for 6 hours kinna lecture thing
I think i'm going to go for it.

I am taking 15 hours. Thankfully, it is a non-thesis masters

16 seems like a lot. I think I started with 12 my first semester, then down to 9 since then. Dont overwork yourself with the classes, the research is the more important aspect for grad school imo

I took 9 over the summer and it fricking sucked. 9 undergrad hours over the summer sucks, though, so I should have expected grad to be worse.
12 will suck, but 16 will be the end of you.

I've taken up to 9 at once before, which seemed excessive to me at the time (of course, I have to make an A in everything).
I'm not comfortable taking more than 6 at a time. 3 if working full time.

^All of this. Just wrapped up 12 hours this summer, 6 hours for five weeks followed by 6 hours the next five weeks. It was a total bullshite festival, and my brain still hurts after a week off after completing it all.

I carried four classes every semester in grad school. I bitched a little at the time, but I knew even then that if I wouldn't dick around so much or spend as much time drinking as I did it would have been no big deal.
You got this.
