Abstract

The choice of a learning mode is very important for a student applying to the Master’s program. But when the choice is made students face other challenges they could not anticipate. Brochures and websites can tell a lot about the courses, teaching staff, and different requirements, but usually it is not enough for the first-year student who has a thousand questions about small but troubling details of the studying process. In this way, the experience of the current students is invaluable as they know what kind of concerns new students may have and how to deal with them. In this work, four second-year Master’s students share some insights about the full-time learning mode at Nazarbayev University, its peculiarities, benefits and drawbacks, and suggest some pieces of advice for those who struggle with the studying.
