Did you work full time?

If you do a search, you'll find some good posts about this.

That said, I did work full time (36 hrs a week at least) all through school. I did very well. (one B in the end) I even had a second major in Biology.

:) I’m wishing you the best with you classes and the need to work too. :)

For myself: I have been thoroughly tired working full time. I’ve tried to work, while taking 12 credits and this was just too much for me. This semester, I’m a full time student-no income. Next semester, I may try working less than part time, depending on how it goes this spring.

working full time while studying is possible but you become very tired. you need good quality time off were your not working or stuying just relaxing. when your younger its alot easier to do than when you get older. all the best but dont get burnt out

I worked the weekend program last semester and school fulltime. Did well. This semester new employer, no weekend program. So it will be fulltime school and fulltime work....we'll see how it works out. I'm determined tho..so Im not expecting Big problems!

It all depends on the type of person you are. Some will be able to handle it just fine while others cannot. I myself more than likely could not do it. I tried it and went to part-time because I am an overachiever and a B wasn't going to satisfy me. This is me personally.

If you feel you can manage it and/or have no other choice then go for it. You can always cut down your hours if you feel the need to. Don't listen to your "friend". He may be right, but go find out for yourself. Opinions will vary and the only way to find out is to experience it first hand. NOT everyone is the same.............

Best wishes to you!
