Our Occupational Therapy program was very demanding and we had one really whacko professor who felt we should eat, live, breathe OT and nothing else for our junior and senior years. She strongly discouraged working, having boyfriends, belonging to ANY organizations. When one of my classmates was getting married, this prof told her that she should be married to OT! She was a fruit cake. Anyway, I worked two jobs, was in the sorority, plus another demanding organization that focused on student recruitment. I graduated 3rd in my class of 50 OT students. During the most demanding semester (gross anatomy and physiology both in that term), I did tell my sisters ahead of time that I might be more scarce for a term but that I'd be back in full swing afterward.
Generally, only the individual knows what he/she is capable of and nobody else should be deciding that for them!
