I have 71% in my bachelors in computer engineering and I want to apply for abroad studies. Preferably USA.<p>My plan for msc.csit is to get excellent grades and apply abroad. However, I don't think that's even loosely possible because I am also doing a full time job (9-6,lunch included).<p>I was wondering how many hours do I need to put up per week in order to succeed in this course besides going to classes?<p>https://cdcsit.edu.np/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/courses.pdf<p>In first semester, there are 5 subjects(ignoring seminar). This is Nepal and you can't really take fewer courses per semester. Only way to do it is to fail classes and do it later lol.<p>For simplicity let's average out and say for 3 credit hours course, 3 lecture hours+9 practice hours are required every week.<p>Every week you have to put:<p>5x9=45 hrs (excluding lectures).<p>about 60 hours including lectures.<p>I have to work 9am-6pm(lunch included) in my job. The lectures will likely be from 6am-9am.<p>Then, I'll have to study from 6pm-10pm. This seems extremely unreasonable to me. However some folks were saying that this is real life....<p>I am planning to join masters anyway because this masters degree is 1/15 th the cost of my bachelors degree and I love to learn computer science.
