As for how much is 19 credit hours, it depends on the courses and the student taking them. For example, a student who is breezing through 2 of their classes effectively have only 13 credit hours to deal with while a student struggling in all 6 of their classes will feel that 19 credit hours is a nightmare. Some additional information is that most college students typically take 4-5 courses which equates to 12-16 credit hours with 6 courses generally not recommended due to the workload.
