You have aced your final exams and packed up your dorm – you have completed your undergraduate degree, and now you are ready to dive into your future career! You can breathe a sigh of relief and begin your search for your dream job, right? Not so fast, with today’s tough economy and competitive pool of qualified applicants an undergraduate degree may not be enough to land you that dream job. Many post-grads are setting their sights on Graduate Degrees to further their education and attract potential employers. While preparing for graduate courses may seem grueling, there are many options ranging from private tutoring to group study sessions with fellow classmates. Listed below are several options you may want to consider:
•If you afford to foot the bill, a private tutor offering one on one interaction is a great option. A private tutor (preferably someone working in your chosen field) can provide insight into both the academic expectations and real life work experience in the course you would like to study.
•Contacting your local testing center is another way to find a graduate prep course. Centers such as The Sylvan Learning Center offer a variety of tutoring options as well as free consultations and tutoring coupons!
•Form a study group. Get in touch with your undergrad classmates and study and prepare together. You can do this a couple of times a week – for free.
•You can also purchase graduate prep materials including books, online courses, and even preparation apps for your phone or tablet. This option gives you the freedom to study on your own time at your own pace.
These are just a few suggestions of the many options you have when beginning to prepare for your graduate school journey. As with all levels of academia, everyone learns and prepares in different ways at different paces – find what works for you and stay motivated to reach your goal.
