Hours per week

[sociologylouise]

For those of you currently in Soc Ph.D. programs, how many hours on average per week would you say, between classes, graduate assistantships, studying, etc. do you spend working?

[iphi]

Not a sociologist, but I am a doctoral student in the social sciences... I spend 50-60 hours a week between classes, homework, assistantship and research.

Yeah 50-60 hours as well, although now that I've finished coursework I have more free time.

Ditto the above, about 50-60 hours. I tip over the 60 hour mark sometimes on weeks where there is lots of grading to get done.
