Know what you’re up against
Before you start studying for those standardized tests and filling application forms, it is fundamental that you know what you’re signing up for…
• Program prerequisites (academic & work experience, etc)• The amount of time, money and energy you’re willing to spend on
studying for and doing the standardized tests• Program requirements (work load, research, hours spent to study, etc)• Potential benefits from completing the program / getting a degree• Realizing forgone oppotunities• Anticipating cultural differences – you don’t want to be stranded in a
foreign land with foreign language and foreign customs without at first being familiarized first with the culture
