Name your courseroom. We'll take it from there.
Two shorter sessions running inside a semester, each about seven and a half weeks. Taking courses in both is normal rather than ambitious, but they run on separate clocks, so their midterms and finals land in overlapping fortnights. The collisions are visible from week one and almost nobody maps them.
It delivers a whole course in roughly half a semester. Nothing in the schedule absorbs a difficult week, and larger assignments tend to arrive together rather than spaced out. Staying ahead of the published dates is effectively the only protection available, since there is no later point at which the pace relaxes.
A remote proctoring service used on some online examinations. It records the attempt and refers anything unusual for human review afterwards, so an exam that felt uneventful proves nothing either way. Becoming familiar with the setup beforehand, on your own equipment, removes most of the anxiety students attribute to the examination itself.
Usually a shared document plus scheduled calls across several time zones, with a grade that is at least partly shared. Setting an internal deadline a couple of days before the real one and keeping the file's version history intact are the two habits that make the difference, because both give you something concrete if the group stalls.
In several programs almost every course carries at least one substantial paper. Taken singly they are manageable. The pressure comes from overlap, because two concurrent sessions can put two long papers in one fortnight, and what they demand is volume and current sourcing rather than conceptual difficulty.
