ECTS = extra cruel troublesome system

First week of the semester is over. First semester in the ECTS system started. Not much good news. Each subject has a detailed calculation on how many hours should be spent on it. I wonder how they counted it. The major change is that teachers really want us to spend that much time on their subjects.
I have 5 subjects according to the recommended study plan. The total time calculated is following: 3x156+182+78=728. The semester is 13 weeks long. That makes it 56 hours per week. Oops, I thought. I have to count also the exam period +3 other weeks. Then I already need to prepare for the State exam (which is also according to the recommended study plan). 728/16=45,5 This is still more than legal weekly working hours! What about my social life? And what about those 20 hours per week that I work?
Yes, I feel a bit under pressure.
No, I will not have free weekends to relax, because I will have a test every Monday.
Let’s go for a coffee or for a beer sometimes ... I will have a free evening ... at the end of June.
