A friend of mine recently pointed out that next week is "dead" week. This sent me into a mini-panic because I am nowhere near finished with all my projects. So, I have developed a few tips on surviving "dead week" (which is far worse than finals week if you ask me) and decided to share them.
* Make a list of projects due and set goals on time-line for accomplishing them. For example, put "have three pages of my ten page paper done by Wednesday"
* Don't spend too much time on facebook. Getting online is almost synonymous with getting on facebook, so it's only natural to want to get on facebook while being online to work on homework. It's important Never a good situation, trust me.
* Take breaks- while it may never seem ideal to stop working, spending too much consecutive time periods on homework can be detrimental. Good break ideas include exercise or going for ice cream.
* Make time for your friends and social life. Pick a day when you're not completely boggled down with homework and have some fun with your friends. Homework will seem more desirable after you've relaxed a little.
* Talk to your instructors. Most will help clarify assignments and may even be flexible on due dates.
So good luck everyone!
