This is hard to say, as there are hardly any hand-resistant criteria for “heavy study”.
A criterion, however, would be that of the study breaks that are rather low at the Anglo-American elite units.
On the one hand, this is probably due to the higher motivation of students through the immense tuition fees and on the other hand to the interest of the universities to keep the students in order to continue to receive these fees (or not to frighten the wealthy parents and their donations). Accordingly, the offer of counselling and support for students is also greatly expanded there to prevent abortions.
A study at these universities is therefore quite feasible if one is in it for the first time, and this does not seem to be much heavier than a study in this country.
