Hey -
I'm just beginning my research after 2 yrs of med school. It's been quite a change of pace. My classes haven't started yet, but I'm a little confused as to what is expected of Graduate students? I mean, in med school - we went to class (optional) and then studied our brains out the rest of the time? So... is this the case for grad school too? or is it more relaxed? I'm a little OCD and a 'workaholic' and i'm afraid of putting my whole life into this if this is not what is expected of me and what is not. My boss has been out of town and i'm just not sure if more is expected of us compared to the other grad students. any ideas??
