<p>I'm a 2nd year biology major and I was just wondering if it's feasible to have work in a part-time job and take an undergraduate research position while a full-time student.</p>
<p>I'm planning on taking 15 credit hours next semester as well as starting research in a lab next semester.</p>
<p>I know it'll be difficult, but I've always been good at time management and I'm doing pretty well in my current classes. Just wanted to get some other opinions/thoughts!</p>
<p>I did it when I was in school - it’s very busy! But it depends on how many hours a week you will work and do research. I worked 10 hours a week and was expected to do research about 10-15 hours a week, so it was like working 20-25 hours a week. That was busy, but doable. But I think if your part-time job is going to be more than ~15 hours a week, then you might not have enough time to give meaningfully to your research lab AND do well in your classes.</p>
