9 Extremely Useful Websites For College Students

The Organised Student

College can be really hard. Luckily, the internet is a great tool to help college students in times of need. Here are some of the most useful college websites around:

1. Quizlet

https://quizlet.com

Quizlet is the greatest thing that has ever happened to college students. That online exam? It is on there. That intense Spanish worksheet? Yeah, it is there too. Basically, Quizlet is the holy grail of all websites for college students.

2. CheggStudy

https://www.chegg.com/study

My personal favorite on the list goes to CheggStudy. CheggStudy is the best. It has almost every type of question imaginable on a database that you might feel compelled to ask. To make the website even better, if your question has not been asked, you can ask it and get a question in minutes. The only con to this website is it requires a $15 per month subscription.

3. Mathway

https://www.mathway.com

Are you struggling with math? If you are, than congratulations, Mathway is the website made for you. Mathway is an advanced math problem solving tool that can help you with your math homework. You type in your problem and it gives you the answer. The solutions can be shown, however, it requires a subscription.

4. RateMyProfessors

https://www.ratemyprofessors.com

This website is my personal savior when it comes time to make my class schedule. This website serves as a database for college professors. You simply just search the name and almost anything you want or need to know about a professor pops up on one simple page.

5. Written Kitten

http://writtenkitten.co

Writing can be the worst sometimes. However, Written Kitten just made reaching that 1500 word minimum so much easier. Written Kitten provides a picture of a kitten for you when you reach your word count, and trust me, the kittens are super cute.

6. The Skimm

http://www.theskimm.com

It is important to know what is going on in the world. Want a personal, yet somewhat sassy summary of all the note worthy things going on in the world? Skimm is for you. Skimm even offers a daily email to start of your day with some news.

7. KeepMeOut

http://keepmeout.com/en/

This website is good if you are a chronic tweeter/ Facebook user. This website blocks you out of social media for however long you enter. When the time is up, it allows you to re visit those websites you blocked. This website is great to use while studying.

8. The Owl

https://owl.english.purdue.edu

Remember that time you were stressing over that one paper you had to write in APA format? This website would have helped you. The Owl is a website that gives writing and formatting information. All the information is correct and extremely useful.

9. BibMe

http://www.bibme.org

Writing papers is already the worst, but citing your sources is just as bad. This website takes away all the hassle of citing your sources. Just enter the information into the blanks and then the website will create a bibliography or citation for you in seconds.

Happy studying!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
