Evidently, a five credit course is going to require more work. Still, I would not think of it as more difficult. Credits are time based. In other words, for colleges and universities that operate on a regular two semester academic year, one credit is 16 hours of class contact time for the semester. Thus, a three credits course would require 48 hours of class contact time, and a five credit course would require 80 hours of class contact time for the semester. As such, the number of credits does not necessarily correlate with difficulty but the amount of time involved.

How long will it take to get 39 college credits part time?

It depends on how many courses you are willing to finish per semester and how many credits each course is worth. Different courses give you different amounts of credit depending on how hard or how long they are. You could probably easily manage one class per semester, for example, but whether that is a one credit class or more would depend on what the class is. Check out your college website to see how many credits each class you want to take counts for, then divide 39 by that number to see how many semesters it will take to get to 39 credits.
