Did you work and go to school full time for graduate studies? Is this doable?

I worked 40 hours a week while completing my masters program. I took two courses per 8-week session. There were two 8-week sessions in the fall and spring, and one 8-week session in the summer. Most of my courses had a lot of reading, weekly discussion posts, a 6-8 page paper, a 10-12 page paper, and a PowerPoint presentation.

I think these courses are full semesters and I don't believe I've ever taken a full semester course. They have always been 8 weeks. So, maybe I will be able to handle 3 per semester.
Don't miss out on something great just because it might also be difficult.
