To give you some idea of the time you need, bear
in mind that, regardless of the category the course belongs to,
a standard 10-week course for 3 credit hours would require three
hours of online work each week.
A course that carries 1 'credit hours' therefore
needs minimally one hour of study for ten weeks. If the course runs
only five weeks, however, this means that one will need 2 hours
of online study each week.
This makes clear why it is usually not a good idea
to take on two or three courses at the same time.

To give you some idea of the time you need, bear
in mind that, regardless of the category the course belongs to,
it takes approximately 10 hours of study for each credit point.
A course that carries 5 'credit points' therefore
needs approximately 50 hours of study. If the course is spread over
10 weeks, you have to plan for 5 hours of study a week.
This makes clear why it is usually not a good idea
to take on two or three courses at the same time.
