How I did it
How I did it: I talked to my advisor to plan what courses to take. I asked other students what professors they liked and which ones to avoid.

This way I could work my way up and get practical experience to balance the sometimes overly theoretical class work. I took 1 or 2 classes each semester for about 5 years. Read how I did it…
