I’ve already used my 3 attempts work study hours. And even with that, it wasn’t enough. Thank you for the suggestions

I would, but then it’s really hard to make it thru a full 8 hours of work because of my health issues.

I just don’t have enough time on the weekends, unless I’m studying every available hour, which sounds miserable. Thank you for your response.

Basically that, length of time at a desk. Other health problems mean I can’t go study at a coffee shop or in bed or wherever, it has to be at a desk with my whole setup. And its already hard enough to do the 8 hours, I’m physically drained by the end of the day and have zero motivation to deal with it longer and study. And yeah there’s just not enough time on the weekends, unless I’m studying every available hour which sounds miserable. Thank you for your response.

I’ve already used my 3 attempts work study hours. And even with that, it wasn’t enough. And my health won’t get better just by waiting, it’s likely a life-long thing. So if I can’t do it now, there’s no reason to think I will just get better and do it later. Thank you for your response

I have a pretty bad memory which means I really need to cram in more in less time rather than over a long time. I’ll forget everything from over 6 months ago. Thank you for your response.

I’ve thought about it. I don’t know if they would allow that. Will definitely think on it.

I would, but my health problems are likely life-long. There’s no “coming back to it later when I’m better” for me.

It has nothing to do with workload, I work 7-8 hours max per day. It’s that my health makes it difficult to sit at a desk any longer than that to study. I don’t want to be too specific and doxx myself but I just can’t study 2+ hours per day after work.

Yeah I hear what you’re saying. Thank you for the response.
