Then, when I finished my MBA, I was working 60+ hours. It can be done, it just depends on how bad you want to do it! I wanted it reeeeeeeally bad. Undergrad GPA 3.7, graduate school GPA 3.82. You don't have to use this for every class, but you should adapt it to your own style. I believe very few things in life are set in stone. Thanks Marc,

It must be nice to be able to focus on your studies without having to earn a living at the same time. Sounds like sublime luxury to me. I still managed a 3.65 GPA, though.
