<p>I have to take 4 more classes and work on a thesis for 2 semesters to get my Master's degree. For this semester, I plan to take 2 courses (1 of which is for undergrads), and both are related to numerical analysis, work as a TA and find a thesis advisor.
Is my plan reasonable? Should I ask professors if it's possible to finish my master's research within a year in their labs, despite having to take classes? How many hours should I expect to put in per week to finish in a year?</p>
