Question: What does it take to receive a masters degree in chemistry?

Hard work, and dedication! Seriously, I didn’t really work as hard as I could have in school and only realised what I had to do in uni after the first year. By then I’d started hanging around a lot of people who spent time in the library studying so it made it even harder to slack off! I think that’s what helped me. Figure out how you work best (alone, in a group etc) and do that. You’ll need lots of help so don’t be afraid to ask for it. And enjoy yourself too! Chemistry can be fun!
