The balance I am trying to figure out:n

  • I need to work to cover living costs
  • My Masters has a heavy contact hours and assignment load
  • I am worried about the impact on my grades

nnQuestions for students who have done this:n

  • How many hours did you find manageable?
  • Did you find specific types of work better than others around study?
  • When did you know it was too much?
