If you have a lot of hours it sucks. By the time you spend 4 or 5 days a week at uni and a couple more working you don't have a lot of time or energy to do a lot of uni work.

Yeap, no time for work but if your motivated you will be able to do it.

However I have done the core subjects that you have done, and they are okay if you get on it, but usually every week you will have something due or a quiz or a report due, so if you able to balance work plus your homework then go for it but if your a procrastinator like the rest of us.. maybe I advise you to go uni for a few weeks and see if you could handle work plus a job. =D

i guess it depends on you. if your still living at home and have to option not to work, then it'd be heaps easier, but for those of us who live on our own, working=eating=survival, which also helps with the uni thing

maybe a part time job would be helpful in easing the pressure of uni...takes your mind off uni related stuff. Im doing a forensic degree and im thankful its only 18 hours a week for me. Prob work 2 days a week on top of that as well.

Lol. I'm guessing 5 days a week? Might be able to work 1 day a week and have 1 day break if you can afford to. I can't see it working any other way... I'm assuming that you want to work, and you don't need to.
