How many people have worked and went to school full-time.?

Question

I work 10hrs 5days a week and i am about to go to school 4 days a week next tues. I never did this before. How did you manage?

Answer 1

I was young and didn't need a lot of sleep. My friend adds a set of twins and an internship to the mix. She almost never sleeps. Good luck and remember the lessons learned from this will last a lifetime!

Answer 2

It's definitely not easy - I had to do this whilst i was studying for my degree at university. Basically you have to really learn to utilise your time well. I found the best way to go about it what to set a routine - I would try to allocate time to fit in everything I had to do each day and ensure I got into a habit of making it a daily practice which wasn't easy as I am not a person who loves routine (very impulsive). Whilst it does suck a bit, it gets easier as you go along and it's fantastic to learn excellent time management skills whilst studying as you find you are so much more adept at managing your time once you graduate in all facets of life!
Good Luck!

Answer 3

I went to school full time, and worked full time for a year. It wasn't easy, for sure. I scheduled my classes so that I could do the assignments between class, and worked evenings from 4 to midnight, and all day Saturday. If I couldn't get my class work done between classes, it was done instead of sleep. I also was dealing with my ex-husband's severe mental illness, and single parenthood of two toddlers, and dire poverty - which was caused by not returning to school soon enough and not getting rid of the psycho ex soon enough. (He loved nothing more than running up a debt.)

Answer 4

Just time management sweet..but i cant say anything.
i work full time in the hospital site, in the cardiac line. Stressful, tiring. Then im doing my study too for further degree. I gave up my wrk and compromise it w my boss to work as a prt-timer only after struggling for 4 months
All the best for you really
