I have done 3 classes in 20 days. I just completed the program for Java and submitted it and looking to take the OA by the end of the week. Its ok I guess, I dont like doing all the reading online, I prefer real books but other than that its just ok. I think I did like 32 credits my first semester and that was with the A+, and Project+ certs.

Probably 4 hours/day. I took the practice exams for each and studied the areas I didnt know. I am going to do this with all of the classes. Some of them you need to submit a project so just look at the requirements of the project and keep them in mind while doing the class.
