I'm in this boat - I take two courses a week; one broken down over the work week and then one from Saturday to Sunday. Its actually not as bad as one might think since I divided my classes by length and if they require written assignments (Study.com). I keep them in a spreadsheet in the order I indicated and again on sticky notes on a desk calendar that I pluck off once I'm done (or if I have to move a date).

Well, back in the dark ages when I finished my degree (10 yrs ago!), I planned to take three exams in one day and, with the testing center open one more hour, I tried the Fundamentals of Counseling DSST too and finished the day with four. It's my fondest memory of my degree completion. One of the tests I took that day was worth six credits, which means that when I was done, I had completed a semester in a day!

Shows how people put their mind to it, they actually get the job done.
I think I need "a vacation" something similar to what that person has done...

That's so true, it's like a sports player in their "game", you just want to let them play at their full potential by giving them opportunities.

If he is native Chinese, I think this guy's 22 exams is far easier than passing the gaokao exam sufficiently to enter a good Chinese university. Look up gaokao if you don't know what it is or look
at this article.
