#I’ve seen people in classrooms of the physics/engineering building at 6pm on a Saturday
Text
All I’m saying is that it’s tragic how very intelligent students are forced to drop out and made feel stupid because some professors feel the need to make their courses so intense that one needs to study 50-60 hours a week, while they just need rest to function, but would have no problem understanding the material if they just had to study 40 hours a week, the actual fucking guidelines for what full-time studies should be.
#I remember when I had a bad cold the week we had FOUR LABS#AND THREE OF THEM WERE SIX HOURS LONG#I think I ruined my liver with all the paracetamol I took#I stood there like a zombie and watched things drip for four-five hours a day and barely saw sunlight for a whole week#I get that’s it kind of inevitable that e.g. chemical engineering will be more difficult than economics#but why is especially stem like that???#I’ve seen people in classrooms of the physics/engineering building at 6pm on a Saturday#although this partially applies to me#I’m mostly thinking of other people and I’m not calling myself super intelligent#humans just need rest#maybe in particular neurodivergent people#my mom (who is an epidemiologist (she doesn’t work with Covid)) has told me that so much study time is to be expected#and with everything else going on in my life#I just don’t know if I want to put myself through it#maybe if becoming a biologist was my dream I would do it#but now??? idk
