General Education courses as CPA student

Hello all, I have some questions regarding General Education courses that we have to take as students in the CPA program:

  1. Do we have to take 1 arts & humanities course, 1 social sciences and 1 chosen from either categories, so total of 3 General Education courses throughout the program to graduate?
  2. Although it varies largely from courses to courses, how much time in a week do these courses generally take to complete assignments, tests and projects, if any?
  3. Would taking Online or Hybrid GE courses save time? I want more time to focus on learning C++ and JS instead of spending hours on writing or listening to professors in GE courses
  4. Based on your experiences, can you recommend any courses that were fun, easy and not time-consuming? OR give a list of courses not to take?
  5. Lastly, would taking 2 GE courses in the 2nd semester along with 4 other required courses be overwhelming due to heavy loads of work?
I would appreciate it if you can even answer one question!
