Academic Rigor

<p>To current students: Are profs as good as you expected? How many hours/week do most students spend studying?</p>

<p>I like most of my Professors. At any school there's always that one crap class, and I had one at Wellesley last semester, but in general, I like my classes and there are lots of great teachers here.</p>

<p>How much time I spend on work depends on how much work I have and how much I procrastinate (I'm procrastinating right now writing to you people). From Wednesday to Friday I'm usually under the gun for my assignments, but at other times in the week, it's okay workwise. (This semester I have an overloaded schedule)</p>

<p>As for rigor, I would not call Wellesley an "easy" school by any stretch of the imagination. People here do their work, and spend lots of time on it because there is plenty of work to be done. Academics are the focus of student life at Wellesley for must people, not boys, parties, or sports.</p>
