You can definitely do it …it may be hard but you can if you apply yourself. I myself am taking five classes from 9:45-3:05 and I work 30 hours a week it can be grueling but it really helps you learn to manage your time well. So as long as you make sure you stay on top of your studies and if work DOES start to interfere you can cut your hours down accordingly then when ou get back on track you can add more. So if you cant do the three and a half hours a day work the hours you can. So if you have a focused mind set you can do it! GOOD LUCK!

I doubled majored in undergrad, and received my BSBA in accounting and a BSBA in management. While in school, I worked roughly 28 hours a week, and took anywhere from 12 to 18 hours a semester. I finished with a 3.4 GPA (2 C’s, some A’s and B’s).

I went to a career fair with my school once, and I distinctly remember something that a partner at a major CPA firm said to me. He said that if it’s between a person with a 4.0 GPA who didn’t have a job, and a person with a 3.0 GPA that did have a job, all other things the same, he’d select the person with the 3.0. He said he thought it was important that people learned to manage their time, and that if someone can maintain a B average while working, than that shows their time management skills (as well as their academic skills).

So, I guess the long answer would be, yes I say work while you’re in school – but don’t overdo it. If you feel like 25 is all you can handle, then don’t go over that. Working will give you greater financial flexibility, as well the skills you need (such as time management) for the real world.

Good luck.

I work part time and take 4 classes, and I do well in school, so it is possible. The student in question needs to take into account that balancing work and school will take much more effort and time management skills than just going to school. However, a lot of places will not hire someone with no job experience after college, so that should be considered as well.

Is this student working to save money, or working to pay tuition? If the job is strictly to save up money, they may want to consider cutting back a little on the hours. Yes, it means less money going into the bank, but that gives more time to concentrate on school. I work my job to help pay my tuition costs, so I need to work all the hours I can get.

In short, it is possible, but there needs to be some consideration of the time and effort it will take, and if they feel they can successfully balance the workload.

That’s a completely arbitrary question and solely rests on an individuals circumstances.

For many people the answer is no.

For many people the answer is yes.

You can look at it like this:

25 hours a week is basically 3.5 hours a day. If you can’t sacrifice those 3.5 hours a day then you shouldn’t work that much. If you can, then go ahead and work. In my opinion, 3.5 hours a day is really nothing and most people wouldn’t be studying during those working hours anyways (at least from my observations and experiences). It really comes down to time management skills and whether the person is dedicated enough to know that when they aren’t in class, at work, or sleeping they should be studying.

I guess it is preferable to not work that much, but I worked between 20 and 30 hours a week, plus took 18-20 credit hours at Rutgers. I needed the money to pay my living expenses/help my family. I made it through with a 3.95 and got into a UCLA PhD program and am now working at LEK consulting. So it worked for me.

relies upon on what the newborn is doing with this variety of help. If the newborn is going to type, analyzing stressful and doing issues like activities to strengthen his or her admission to graduate or expert college, I say “large.” If the newborn is reducing type, grades are marginal or slipping, maximum time is spent fooling around or worse, then i might say the newborn needs to get a job. My son is a school student who does no longer paintings. I do his laundry, restoration his foodstuff, and pay the charges. i myself can no longer take care of to pay for to fulfill all his college costs because of the fact i’m disabled and a graduate student myself, yet experience that the sacrifices I make now are nicely-nicely worth it. he’s president of the tutorial fraternity, does community volunteer paintings and controlled to get a 4.0 GPA final term…he’s making plans a profession in drugs, some thing i replaced into no longer able to acquire because of the fact my mom replaced into no longer able and my sisters antagonistic her offering me any help. have faith me, a partial scholarship to Harvard is barely a paper with ink on it if a student does no longer have parental help.

I work 20-25 hours a week and maintain a 3.69 GPA while taking FIVE classes so yes it can be done.

thats what my friends do but they just have to put in extra effort to make sure they stay on top of their work…

hey there, you should if you have enought time to study, and want to have extra money around to buy some goodies!!!
