busy students

hello. i was just wondering how many of us 06'ers are also fulltime college students? if you are in college, where do you go and what are you studying? do you work as well?
i am entering my senior year at st joe's in patchogue this fall and i am a psych major, soc minor. i also work fulltime at a childcare center. i am trying to plan my wedding AND study for the gre's this summer. i want to get as much wedding planning done this summer as i can bc wants the school year starts my time is booked (work, school, grad school apps and essays, writing my thesis).
anyone else in the same boat?

I am a full time student also...majoring in Speech Pathology. I just graduated my undergrad in may and will be going to grad school f/t in the fall along w/ working p/t. I understand...that was me last year (GRE's, thesis, honor's stuff). What I did was concentrate on the wedding during times off (summer, spring break, etc) or during a slow time. I also started planning in advance because the summer I am getting married I will be doing a clinical practicum and taking classes . It's rough, but in the end it will all be worth it! Ugh I hated the GRE's! Go get kaplan's computer softwear for the GRE. it was so much help!!!

Lots of luck to you! You will do fine!

It's so funny I went so nuts w/ the GRE and studying (I did not get my thesis done as soon as I wanted). I spent so much money on books, computer software, and everything...and I was such a horror to deal with during that time. then I took it and and it was like 'that's it?' Keep studying though. I know putting all that effort in was worth it.
