Re: College massivly stressing me out -
March 15th 2013, 02:25 AM
Graduate school is all about time management. The thing I've found to be most helpful is getting a giant desk calendar and color-coding all my classes. Then, I look at the syllabus and figure out when everything is due. I write the due dates down on the calendar. Then, I figure out how to break down the assignments into smaller, less intimidating portions. I estimate how long it will take to complete those portions, then I write them down on my calendar as well. Eventually, I end up filling just about every day on the calendar... but instead of having daunting tasks, I'll have an hour set aside for this class' project, an hour set side for this class' upcoming quiz, and so on. If you can begin to do this, then your workload may not seem as intimidating. Yes, you may have a few days where you have an unusually large workload, right before the deadlines... but if you stay on top of those smaller portions, you can get it all done on time and reduce your stress. =)
