I am taking four classes this semester - the usual number of classes per semester at MIT. I've been able to pass all my classes last year in both semester, but this year my classes are unexpectedly intense, and I already have homework past due for all three of the four classes that have assigned homework so far (in addition to my ongoing struggles with poor mental health and poor sleep).
This market resolves YES if I pass every class according to my official academic transcript as issued (I expect the grades to be issued around mid-January 2024), NO if I fail at least one class, and N/A if I don't take any class to completion.
I will answer further questions about my performance in the comments.

It's been a while into the semester, so I feel like I owe y'all an update. Here it is:
I am veering towards a D or F in one class (probably a fail since passing that class has multiple requirements). However, I also spoke with my advisor today and he strongly encouraged me to drop it. Tomorrow is the drop deadline so getting in the drop forms is a race against the clock now.
I've been going through an especially hard mental health crisis this semester. I think this is caused by some kind of mutually self-reinforcing vicious cycle (triple?) of very poor sleep, not doing enough homework on time, and extremely online unproductive doomscrolling.
@duck_master take care of yourself, and journal your thoughts out more so it's clear to yourself.
@duck_master you got this! Take care of yourself and try to not beat yourself up too much! Journaling for clarity can be really quite helpful!
