That is common in American universities as well, but if you asked a university administrator about it they wouldn’t endorse it. Would a university administrator for German universities say “yes, go right ahead and skip all the lectures if you want” or would they say “no, we strongly advise against that”?
For many universities, there’s a maximum courseload they’ll let you register for. You can probably get a 4-year degree in 2.5 years if you’re actually willing and able to study well enough to pass tests and the required not-only-test classes. But no matter how good you are, I don’t know any that will give you a degree in one-shot if you already can ace all the tests.
Don’t know, I literally never talked to one during my studies. My guess is they would advise against it, but be pretty clear that it’s ultimately up to you.
