Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Creating an action plan that breaks down the large goal of graduate school into smaller steps is the best course of action. This will help the student to prioritize tasks, manage time efficiently, and keep track of progress. It will also help the student to identify any potential roadblocks and plan accordingly. Option A is also important, but it should be considered after creating the action plan. Option B may not be feasible for everyone and may take away time and energy from achieving the other requirements. Option C is important, but it is already implied in the question that the student needs to achieve each requirement.
