Anyone else studying a Master's or PhD while working?

[HE_Pennypacker]

shyt is tough, brehs I'm working 40hrs + and doing a Master's in Economics part time. It'll take me 4 years. Each unit is 10hrs' work of work, and I'm doing 2

Anyone else doing something similar and wanna come commiserate with ya boy?

It'll be worth it, though. Black excellence comes at a high price

Hang in there
I just finished my masters and I have 3 jobs it was skressful, time consuming, frustrating and hard work but was def worth it and I'm glad I did it. I did 2 courses a semester and summer classes too, but finished in 1.5 yrs. The courses were reading and writing intensive and I had to conduct research so my social life was put on pause lol. Reaching the finish line will be amazing so keep it up!

Is it possible for you to scale back your job, take a different job part time, or do something else financially? What's your job?

What was your undergrad in? I'm currently taking my last Econometrics course and its rough as shyt for me, its a undergrad tho. I know for sure when you start doing advanced micro econ and econometric on the graduate level the math is going to get intense if I'm assuming you are going to a reputable school. Good luck to you and stay focused it won't be easy but then again I don't know your math background.

Economics undergrad breh. The math is intense, but it's extremely interesting
