Ah, those MIT units. The 4-0-8 notation means hours per week: four of lecture, zero of lab, eight of outside work, they say. A 48-unit term is a beast, meant to be sixty hours of work. But my life tells me this is a gentle fiction. In Delhi, trying to keep up, my weeks were a blur of eighty hours, and that "first-year credit cap" felt like a polite suggestion I was too tired to follow.
