I'm finishing up my master's degree, and it is definitely do-able. While it is (in some ways) a little harder than getting a bachelor's degree, in other ways, it's easier. Some of the classes I've had as a grad student have been mixed (undergrads and grad students), while most have been all grad students. The mixed classes have had extra stuff for the grads to do, such as number of pages for term papers (say, 10 pages for undergrads while grads might have 20 pages), etc. But it's definitely doable...
