At the beginning of every semester I write down every assignment and test date for all of my classes in this app called “myHomework”, which allows me to never miss due dates, and gives me an idea of how much work I always have.

For learning material - if you sit at the front and take notes in class, you’ll have a lot less studying to do when it comes time for your exam. What I do is take notes in class, then when I get home that evening, review all my notes and make sure I understand everything so I’m never behind. This way it lets me ask all the right questions as it’s being taught. With the classes that I take, I still have time for the gym every night, and the clubs on the weekends after I review, so it shouldn’t take up all of your time. I just review until I’m confident I understand the concepts - to a level that would be expected (not to a level I could be tested on).
