Hey I have loads of questions but will narrow it down. I will be starting a phd program in math in fall 2012. How hard is grad school? I seriously know its not easy because if it was everyone would be in the program. Since I'm right here at the door for grad school, I kind of scare because don't know what to expect. I will try to get with a professor to become a RA. How is becoming a RA? Is it hard work? What about balancing that, school work, and little free time... if any free time.
Please answer... I welcome all answers!!!! I really would like to know how it will be. It would be great if someone in science can tell me what they go/went/going through.
