Also, how many courses may a first year student take, maximum?

    Is it possible to manage:
    – 6 full courses (17 hours of classes/week)
    – job (17 hours/week)
    – sport (appr. 5 hours/week)
    – many, many, many extracurricular activities (time involvement impossible to estimate)
    – a bit of volunteering (from time to time, nothing stable)
    and:

    Have an A average??? I really really need to know!
