 I'm Madison DiRozario and I am getting my business degree through Duke Griffith right now. I've been studying a lot with Griffith since early 2018 so a couple years now and it's been amazing because of the flexibility that comes with it. Every day kind of looked a little bit different trying to work out how to fit in study with everything else. My absolute favorite thing about online study is how flexible it is. Online study is the only way that really allows that flexibility to you know prioritize things but still get something as important as study done in on a timeline that really suits us. Everyone kind of takes time to answer questions that students have which I found is really cool. Shooters are always so quick as well to get back and answer questions and amazingly helpful. I know I'm not the best with deadlines and so I've always been asking like a lot of last-minute questions as I've gone and everyone has been so flexible and so understanding of that. The culture on the online study has been really good and even though you're not seeing these people in person it's actually really good and really helpful community of people. I find it harder to find motivation to actually write papers and assignments more than to actually listen to lectures and so I have found that if I need to actually write an assignment it's better for me to listen to a tutorial whether it's a collaborate session whether it's an actual pre-recorded lecture and then jump into writing something. You know right now I'm doing topics that are super interesting so it's kind of easy to kind of get like engaged in the content and then you know that helps think about you know what you're actually about to you know pen to paper and start writing. Basically work out what it is that you have to do and how much time it's going to take and then do try and stick to that. Work out what needs to be done and the best way to do it and you know it's something that we all say it's like make a plan and stick to it way less pressure studying online than I find in person but it can be so much worse if you're not sticking to to schedule that you have to set for yourself.
