This is my last quarter, so I do see the end of the tunnel, and so will you. Full time job + new born + MBA. It's been tough. Debbie has a very good advice--cutting back on activities. You will get your social life back! Like Debbie, I’ve been there. This is my last quarter, so I do see the end of the tunnel, and so will you. Full time job + new born + MBA. It’s been tough.

Debbie has a very good advice–cutting back on activities. You will get your social life back!

Much needed encouragement. I think the decrease in my photography business activity due to the recession is a blessing in disguise... Thanks Debbie. Much needed encouragement.

I was working full time, newly married, directing my church choir, and going to school for my MBA part-time for 3 years at Case Western Reserve (a one hour drive one way from my house). I had never been a 4.0 student, but decided I wanted to try for that with my MBA program, so that meant even more "above and beyond" to meet that goal. My advice: you MUST force yourself to keep on track and DON'T STOP. Keep the goal in mind and you WILL get done and you WILL be happy you did it! Drop any extra activities you can, take some sick or personal days to study or recoup if you must, and push through. Oh, and plan something super fantastic to do when you are done! My husband and I planned a one month trip to Europe for the summer I finished (he had the fall semester to complete yet). It was his first trip abroad and we had a blast! Just hang in there - and keep us posted! Been there!
