Jad’s Answer

My biggest stress relief was stopping for frequent breaks and going on long walks in the neighborhood. That and spacing out my studying so that cramming would not be necessary. Exercise, healthy eating and sleeping habits are important in proactively keeping stress controlled

Judith-Ann’s Answer

The best stress relief in college was sports and laughing. Playing tennis or ping pong gets me totally in the minute. Laughing either with conversation with friends or watching a good sitcom or good standup comic are all great stress relievers for me. I chose activities that didn't involve drugs or alcohol or anything unhealthy. I chose excercises and events that kept my mind body and soul pure. So my choices were cleansing and relaxing.

Kazim’s Answer

Hi Samantha,

After the first semester, I realized that competing masters was more important than grades.

Looking at multiple resumes, talking to HR managers, and friends/aquantances; GPA is emphasize for undergraduate degree and completion/major is emphasized on masters.


I started to spend more time with friends and building my network while I was in grad school. Working on masters is a good conversation starter. I was able to focus better on my course work mainly because My primary focus was building a network.

You are stressed about graduate school means you did really well on your under undergraduate degree. My advice take it easy, focus on completing on time, and have fun

Kazim recommends the following next steps:

Build a professional network
Spend time with friends and family
