What has helped me become a more productive student?
Scheduling time is already hard as it is; being a freshman in college plus trying to schedule time is as hard as it can get. For this reason, I decided to think of ways in which my life could be made easier so I can take advantage and do more with my days here in college. First of all, I make a list the day before of all the things, as realistic as possible, I would like to achieve the next day. I give myself time spans to complete the tasks in the list while making sure that I give myself breaks; be it to exercise, hang out with friends, eat a snack, or even take a nap. It's easy to make a list though, the hard part is to actually complete it. For this reason, the list should be made as realistic as possible. I personally find it much easier to make a list because since I have a set time to do everything, I know that if I complete the task in the time I set myself to do so, I will be able to get the amount of break time I set for myself. This system has helped me a lot because of the way it helps me see what I am actually capable of completing in a day and make plans to work progressively and not have to cram all the material for an exam the day before.
