How much should a full time college student study?

This is certainly a question that comes up a lot in any learning environment. You always hear all these stats like 2 hours outside class for every 1 hour in class. So 6 hours of studying per week for a 3 credit hour class. Personally I have found this to be over the top for a lot of classes on both the undergraduate and graduate level. On the other hand I have had some courses that require 8 or even 10 hours per week to really excel. It all comes down to how well you understand the material, how quickly you pick up new material, and what type of grade you are looking to make in the course.

Good luck!
