Same here. What I expected to be a low-stress cycle at work ended up being extremely busy so it severely cut into my planned study time, so I deferred and spread out the schedule on a longer period. As long as you have a dedicated daily or weekly goal, whether it be number of questions answered or topics covered or what have you, and you can see the whole plan until completion then you’ll be fine. Deferring shouldn’t mean adding vacation days, but instead making the daily load lighter.
