- i guess it would be as easy as you are determined
- I'm not doing post grad but currently work 40 hours a week as an IT Consultant, run a catering company with my b/f and am doing a BA (Hons) in History with the Open Uni. Distance Learning is a really great way to allow you to work and study and I would recommend the Open Uni. They tell you you should be able to dedicate 16 hours a week but I usually get away with about 12. Good luck!
- It is hard at any age. Question to ask yourself is this, will the time, effort and money spent be worth it after you grad.? If not, then why not start your career now. If you decide you want to go back later for your post-grad. you could do it online.
- If it`s what you really want you will make it happen. I did a year long, day release, management course at the age of 40 as well as working 60 hours a week.It was hard work but with help from the family I completed the course and passed.
- It depends upon your aptitude & ur commitment towards the subj in which u r pursuing ur pg......I kno a person who became a doctor at the age of 52...after working for nearly 30 years as a clarck....so if u really want to do something u can...noting is impossible...but u need proper planning...time management is gonna be a cruicial issue...
- You won't with a negative attitude. Age shouldn't come into the equation. Just apply yourself and give it your best shot. You can do it.
- It will be hard work but with good time management you can hack it - go for it and think of the pot of gold at he end of the rainbow - Good Luck to you!
- I've recently finished full time postgraduate studies (phd in science), which is not something I would recommend combining with a job..actually I don't think there's anybody that could do it and stay sane.... But it really depends on the studies you want to pursue of course. It all depends on how strongwilled you are to see it through, my experiences are it's not at all easy. In science sometimes you can combine it with your job if you work for the right company...
