Tell me about your post-secondary education. What was the most challenging part?

"Earning my Master's degree was the most challenging thing I have ever done! I found all of the courses equally challenging, which I appreciated. The bigger challenge for me was the group projects. It's tough to study, work, and arrange a time to meet with a group. This challenge helped me to trim down the activities in my day that were not serving me, in regards to time management. My schedule is very well honed now, because of this experience."

Share a challenge you experienced in one of your classes while obtaining your Bachelor's or Master's degree. Maybe the class was challenging because it wasn't one of your strengths. Math and science courses might be tricky for you, or perhaps the professor was a real challenge. Focus on what you did to overcome it, rather than placing your attention on the issue.

"The most difficult thing for me was the level of homework and study time required. I had always worked while going to high school, but for my university course load I had to reduce my hours to make time for studying."
