60 credits is usually just under 3 semesters, if you take a full course load. And if you take foreign languages the credits rack up even faster because each class has a higher credit value because of the labs.

Of course if you only take 12 hours per semester then its 5 semesters, but usually that's the bare minimum to be considered a full time student.

I don't know about your school but at my school 60 credits would be 2 years as well. 15 credits per semester and each class is worth 3 credits. so 15 x 4 semester is 60 credits.

Oh man, those guys were SO annoying. I saw them in little flocks in Shibuya all the time too, and I'm 95% sure they were selling weed there XD

Same here, and just about every other school in the country

Yeah, pretty much how I saw it too, especially since 120 credits = Bachelor's degree = four years.

Yeah, let's sign him up for a crapload of spam...

Also, I notice he seems to have targeted MMM, by putting what I assume is MMM's email address at the bottom of his post, hoping people will send their angry replies to him.
