Mark here, thanks for the comments! I think my best bet on that front is to switch gears if I get stuck on a problem. So long as I'm able to make headway on some of the material at a given moment, then I should be able to keep pace. I suspect the basics electronics and statistics courses will save me on that front.

When it comes to grokking difficult concepts, I can often grasp an idea at a basic level rather quickly, but it can take me up to months before I'm able to realize all the implications of it. Also, I've noticed the rate at which I grasp things is very dependent on how well it's taught. If a concept is taught well I can leverage it very quickly, but if I have to spend hours disentangling a concept I often don't end up able to leverage it until months later when my subconscious has had time to make sense of the idea.

Hi Mark, how are you going to pull this off while going to school full time? Or are you taking some leave as well?
