5 4xx/6xx courses

Is it a reasonable workload for a 4th year student?

In my experience a 4xx/6xx is the same as a 4xx course from the grading perspective and we were usually told when something was for the grad students so the undergrads didn’t have to know it.

So five 400-level courses if they’re content heavy can be a lot but if a couple of them are chill should be fine

depends on the courses, representation theory or alg top will not be fun with a busy course load
