One of the biggest challenges that you’ll face at college is staying on top your coursework. It’s easy to feel as though you’re being overloaded with more coursework than you can handle. Or, that you're snowed under and the climb to reach the top of the heap is now impossible. But the truth is that colleges don’t give students more work than they can handle. It’s just that they don’t always take into account the fact that you might have other commitments. Whether that’s relationships, social activities or even a full-time job. This is why coursework will often feel completely impossible.
 | BUT THERE |
| Plan A Schedule The first thing that we recommend is that you do design a schedule. Make sure that you have the information you need. You need to know when coursework is due, how much time you have and when you’ll be able to work on it. You should write a plan with all your social activities included. Don’t forget to cross off time where you have lectures or other university commitments as well. The time left you need to divide into time to study, time to work and time to relax. We suggest you aim for approximately two hours of coursework and studying each day. You can learn more about how much to study on howtostudy.com/manage-your-time/. Sometimes, you’re going to go over that amount. But you shouldn’t find yourself working far past your planned schedule. It’s not a good idea to stay up all night working on a piece of coursework. Despite what you might believe, it’s not going to be your best work. | Join A Study Group It’s worth thinking about joining study groups for different classes and lectures at college. This is going to make completing your coursework a lot easier. You’ll be able to rely on other people who are completing the same work as you. You just have to be careful you don’t accidentally plagiarize other people’s work. The best way to do this is to research together but write the essay by yourself. If you research together, you’ll find all the information that you need. But you won’t end up with the same essay. People are going to write in different styles and prevent unique points. As well as this, a study group will encourage you to get the work done. People are going to notice if you aren’t completing the work. |
| Learn The Shortcuts If you’re struggling to make a coursework deadline, you can take a short cut. Rather than writing that piece of coursework yourself, you can get someone else to do it for you. You can get a research paper online from a site like i-termpaper.com. We’ll let you in on a secret. Everybody does it. If they didn’t, then this service wouldn’t even exist. But it does, and it’s there for every level of higher education. We’re not suggesting that you complete all your coursework this way. But one paper here and there won’t count for much of your grade. The best part is that these reports are completely plagiarism proof. | Avoid Distractions The easiest way to fail getting coursework complete is to get distracted. It’s difficult to stay inside when you know the sun is shining and there’s a whole world of possibilities. But this is about perseverance and determination. You need to force yourself to get the work done so that you can enjoy your spare time. It’s not as easy as it sounds. The smallest things can distract you. From doodling on a piece of paper to the squeak of a chair. Some people are better at staying focused than others. We recommend that you have twenty minutes every hour to relax and take a break. Do this and you should find you can concentrate for longer without getting distracted. But beware of working towards your next break. Do this and you might find you rush your work. |
Ask For Help
Finally, there’s no harm in asking for help in collage. In fact, in many cases they expect it, and we’re not just talking about getting extensions on the deadline either. If you don’t fully understand a point or you think you’ve lost focus writing coursework, speak to your professor. They’ll be able to get you back on track. You might think that by doing this you look weak. But it’s better to do this, rather than to work on an essay that simply isn’t going to make the grade.
