For each hour you spend in the classroom, you should plan to spend a minimum of three hours in study outside the classroom. This means each week you should spend a minimum of seven and a half hours in focused study for this course.
Many graduate students return to school after years of absence from the classroom.
Graduate education and graduate work is very different from undergraduate work. You are now expected to participate in the teaching process through collaborative and individual work and sharing of this work with classmates. Success in graduate school takes planning. Devise a study space where you can work uninterrupted. Gather materials you will need before you begin your study session.
