work and study programme

It depends on one's financial condition. Some parents support fully their children until they complete their studies and find a suitable job. Later the children remit the money towards the family, after keeping enough for themselves. I feel it is better to work for 2 to 3 hours a day (not during the exams) but for most part of the year and earn substantial money to meet one's personal expenses, sometimes, the expenses of learning. But one should not work for longer hours - because this may cause fatigue or tiredness which may ultiamtely result in not taking much interest in studies.
