what can I expect of Masters level social work classes?

Question

I want to know how to survive in graduate level classes.

Answer 1

A MSW is more time consuming then anything. Its a lot of writing and a great amount of it is field work. You may be
required to a 2-3 day a week internship. But if you have the discipline to succeed you will be fine

Answer 2

Suprisingly the same stuff that you encounter in undergraduate school will be in graduate school. The classes are more relaxed and there is less pressure. You still have a lot of work to do but it is a totally different atmosphere. I found graduate school to be much easier than undergrad. It's a lot of papers and oral presentations etc...You'll most likely have to do a field work which is a great experience, if you don't already work in a social work environment. If you do, you may be able to use your job.

Answer 3

Personally, if you survived at the undergraduate level, you'll do fine at the graduate level. I have found that if you are studying something that you love, the work won't be difficult. The most challenging part will probably be keeping up with assign reading, essays, and projects, which isn't really hard work, just time consuming.

Answer 4

Much regurgitation of the same old cliche-ridden yakademic, psuedo-scientistic, metaphysical sophistry designed to make you an agent of the white,pig power structure,ie., a social worker member of the vanguard of the proletariat. You will do fine if you ask really penetrating questions and have Professors that appreciate that occasional student with the big questions.

Answer 5

Rely on your classmates. If you haven't learned to do this yet now is the time to do it.
