How does one avoid burn-out?
Focus on one thing at a time; steer clear of negative people; don’t be a perfectionist; don’t fret; and work on your time management skills. Once you are invested in the program, keep plugging along!

If, however, it is necessary to transfer out of the program, it has been demonstrated that the experience, in and of itself, is a marketable commodity, as students still can maintain advanced studies’ course selections and high goals.
