How hard are you working?
just a quick question directed at all American students at college e.g yegch
How many hours a week outside college are you actually working? Don't include poker!

schoolwork:
prolly no more than 3-4 hours a week. This is quite alot IMO, most years it was less, maybe 1 hour wekk max, but this year I have a bastard teacher who gives us math H.W 2x week, hence the elevated hours.
Work: = poker. So u know how degen taht can be.
I can make about what most jobs pay for college kids/hr, so I rather grind. Also it is much more flexible.
bottom line: i dont believe in trying hard.

Since transferring to my new university, I have not had time to work. The work load is too immense to have a part-time job. I spend at least 40 hours studying a week.
