:Courses are an arcade mode of play where you play four predetermined songs back to back on a single life bar. The bar barely increases during play, and barely fills up between songs. An empty bar results in your immediate disqualification, though you can still enter your name if you got a high enough score on the rankings. In the pop'n music CS games [[PnM_CS_6|6]] through [[PnM_CS_8|8]], certain songs can only be played in Game/Free Mode by playing them in courses. | :Courses are an arcade mode of play where you play four predetermined songs back to back on a single life bar.

:Prior to courses, there was a mode in [[PnM_AC_3|pop'n music 3]] which allowed you to play through three songs back-to-back with Hyper notecharts. This mode was never used again due to Hyper charts being added to the core game the following installment. | :Prior to courses, there was a mode in [[PnM_AC_3|pop'n music 3]] which allowed you to play through three songs back-to-back with Hyper notecharts.
