Keeping a planner by my side is something that always seems to keep me on track, I prefer paper over electronic when it comes to planning out my schedule. This keeps me focused on my priorities. Juggling 5 courses can be messy but using a planner to sort out everything helps a lot.

After every class, I always try to read over any notes taken during that period, so later when studying or completing homework it's easier for me to remember what was discussed earlier that day. I also rewrite the notes a few times to help me remember and learn any concepts.

3. Setting a fake due date for assignments.

I've learned that setting the due dates a few days before it's actually due, helps me a lot. I get things done sooner, and I'm head of any homework. this gives me time to study and prepare for any upcoming exams.
