I may or may not be able to post for the next 3 months. I'm a huge procrastinator and usually make time to do whatever pops into my mind but this time around I'm really going to try to manage my time well this semester. I am officially taking General Biology 1 with lab, General Chemistry 1 with lab, and an upper Psychology class. Not defeating myself, but I'm screwed. I haven't done anything like this before and Gen Bio scares the shit out of me...I over estimated myself a couple of semesters ago and had to withdraw from Bio or get a C. Super, duper nervous.
I am hoping that my new found respect for the subjects and managing my time studying will overcome my pending thoughts of doom.
- Read chapters before lectures and labs
- Record lectures
- Listen to lectures and make own notes
- Study 2 hours a day as well as at night when the household sleeps
- Take advantage of tutorial center and Prof. office hours
- Turn off the phone at a certain time (I'm very close to my parents and siblings so that'll be hard)
- Try the index card method
Not to mention keeping up with my psych class which is online. Things around my house will be less than stellar because I can't eff this up. I already have 2 of those blasted W's on my transcript--I don't want anymore.
Find it in your hearts to wish me good luck. I'm sure I'll update before the semester ends.
