AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the average daily study time among serious students pursuing graduate studies or PhDs. Participants report a wide range of study hours, with some studying intensely for 12-18 hours on specific days, while others average only 2-4 hours daily due to various factors like attention difficulties during lectures. Many emphasize the importance of effective study habits and personal motivation, suggesting that enjoyment and passion for the subject can enhance learning efficiency.

About 4-5hrs a day when I'm taking a full sciencecourse load. But during the quarters when I'm taking on GE courses, I study maybe 15-20hrs for the whole quarter.

For me it depends if I have classes or not in a day. If I have classes, it's 4 hours of intense comprehension and 2 hours of doing exercises, plus maybe an hour of study at home. Days at home are inconstantly, I can study 3 hours during a day and then the next day almost nothing (but I almost read over the Internet about maths and physics everyday). A week before a small exam I study maybe 4 or 5 hours by day.
The average is hard to calculate. I voted 3-4 hours a day.
