one of my friend works in gas station about like 60 hours per week and also he goes to university taking 15 credit hours of core 300 level classes and still he is passing with grades  A or B and i was just wondering how is that possible. I asked lots of students from different states and they all say it is very hard to make it through like that specially when someone is in his 300 or 400 level core classes about community colleges i think its not that tough.
            But if someone is average student working 50-60 hrs per week and also full time student in university in his 300-400 level core classes can he or she still be able to get good grades, if anyone of you fall in this kind of situation can you elaborate on how the life would be, is it manageable to spend time for study despite working the ass off and still be able to pass not considering community college or general education courses...........

It all depends on how determined u r to accomplish your goal. I have seen people sleeping only 3-4 hours a day and other time either working or studying.

Absolutely possible! I've seen lots and lots of students with perfect 4.0 GPA with 60-hr cash job(until they got a real job). Yes, as Jenny said, determination should definitely be there.

it is nice to hear of such a struggle from many Nepali. This is a reminder to all of those new comers that there is no short cut to success. Everyone has to pay the price. Result is worth it though. Congrats to someone who works that hard and still maintains good GPA. just be careful with La Migra.

No pain...no gain. Just think of bigger opportunities ahead of you when you feel low. It is just a part of life.

Happy New Year and all the best
