That's like average here. Don't take more than fifteen. You're biting off more than you can chew. No class at a university is simple. They all require lots of time and devotion.

Don't underestimate how hard your classes may be because it will bite you in the ass.

Don't be so eager to go and live on your own. Sure it's a great experience but think about it. If your university isn't far away from your home, like mine, then you don't have to live off ramen noodles. Why struggle when you don't have to.

the difficulty of credits varies through colleges I think. the average here is around 10 and all the teachers cringe when I tell them I take 14

Network and interact with people in your classes as much as you can. They can really help you in times of need.

Yours must be different, since all the universities and colleges I know of, the average is 15 credits. Most are also 120 to graduate with different criteria and whatnot.

it's a community college (not sure if that's the reason) and I hear there's some kind of "exchange rate" with credits if you want to transfer to CSU
