Is it normal to want to quit grad school after only a month?
I recently enrolled in an MS program, but after a month, I'm already questioning if it's for me. I expected more from graduate school, but the reality feels underwhelming. Each course only lasts five weeks, which feels too short for me to actually absorb and appreciate what I'm learning.
I graduated last year lang and still gaining experience from my first job. Honestly, I am not earning enough kaya the cost of grad school really affects my finances.
The only thing making me hesitate is the down payment. Nanghihinayang ako sa perang nagastos ko, but I also don't want to keep investing in something that doesn't feel worth it. Don’t get me wrong graduate school is a good investment naman. I just don’t feel like I am in the right school and the timing.
Am I just adjusting, or is this a sign that the program isn't for me? Has anyone experienced this? Did you push through or decide to leave? Please be kind. Thank you!
