140 Skills Class
Taking too many college courses at once can have potentially serious consequences.
1. Students can become overwhelmed with the workload, and their GPA can suffer as a result.
2. Some students can get so stressed that they burn out and are unable to finish their degree.
3. Other students can be tempted by the use of illegal prescription drugs to help them focus and keep them awake into the night.
4. Taking more than the average number of courses at the same time can be beneficial for students who want to graduate early.
5. The pressure of a busy schedule can tempt a student into committing academic fraud, which can lead to expulsion.
6. Taking on too many responsibilities at work can have similar negative effects.
