you dont have to do this in grad school but if believing that this is what the workload is like will keep you from attending go nuts

As a grad student, I read each assigned reading twice before each class discussion. This often meant reading a 300 page book twice, within a week. If you’re not prepared to do this and more, I wouldn’t pursue grad school, let alone academia.

Depending on the prof, in history you might get a 500 page book in one course and two more readings of a couple hundred pages in the others, weekly. No-one expected it to be finished. It taught you how to lie and how to anticipate. Salesmanship. The job of any good doctor.
