5. I don't know how I would survive that.

I have three sections of my intro class - I can't even keep them all on the same topic at the same time. Some classes have a higher percentage of special needs students, and just don't cruise along at the same speed. One section might be done with a project and nagging me for new work, while the next section with the same syllabus is only 25% done. Moving them on would be pointless - they'd end the semester with 20 half finished projects.
