If you have closed quals, you can still do well during summer! It's just the student work and studies that slows down. Jun-Aug of last year I was averaging about $600 a month, a couple hundred less than usual, but not awful. I'm far from a super turker though (and no Masters).
Oh gosh I'm making like...MAYBE $100-125/month. I can't imagine $600!!

I work all day and then a few hours after 11pm as well. When you do the hourly pay, it isn't much. But, I don't leave the house more than once or twice a month (even before the pandemic) so turking and a few other sites really are my only hope for an income.

Do you have any tips on getting closed quals?

That's what I was making when I was new, but now I am averaging about $600 a month (right now, pre-summer). I work off and on from 6:30 am to 4:30 pm. Sometime its really "off" when I have something else I have to do. I have also taken days off just to get away from it.

Keep qualing, and keep racking up HITS

Rejects you for his own fault -> sends a rejection letter with so much writing in it that it doesn't even show the link. This guy really is something.

"Dear Mturk worker My deepest apologies for reaching out using HIT rejection to send this message Thank you for your interest in this study It was brought to our attention that the study accidentally kicked all participants out at the first attention check barely a quarter of the way through the study As a result none of the data is useable While this is not your fault we kindly ask for your consideration in helping us remedy this situation We value your responses and experience as well as your time Upon retaking this survey I will approve the previous task for the 4 and will bonus your account an additional 1 I wish I could pay you more for your trouble but we have a very limited budget and your accurate responses are really important to this studys success Our deepest apologies for this inconvenience Please take the complete survey here and we will quickly approve the HIT within 24 hours so your approval rates do not get dinged Thank you so much for your help and understanding https "

He didn't even look at his own rejection letter before sending it. Some people........
They reversed it without me doing the survey. Gonna start it now since they sent the link in a 1 penny bonus.
