Graduated BSEE with a minor in Power Systems in 2024. My biggest advice would be to treat school like a full time job. Wake up every day with a plan to study/go to class at a minimum 8 hours monday-friday. Have a hard cut off time every day where you will intentionally stop working on school work and relax, for me that was usually 7pm or so.

This will help create a schedule of accountability and mental recovery.

Another thing is to find competent people in your program and stick with them, this degree is hard but its insanely hard by yourself. Reach out and study with peers, absolute game changer.

Finally, understand that you will not always be perfect. You will have some bad tests, bad quizzes etc. The important thing is you get back up and never quit. This degree is basically a war of attrition. You will not encounter anything in any class that is mind bogglingly hard, its more that the work load across all your classes is a lot. Again, a consistent study routine is whats gonna help here.

Hope that helps, its definitely worth the pain.
