I like to binge watch all the episodes I missed of my favorite shows on Netflix. If that's not possible, I read or sleep.
I personally like Netflix over Hulu. Netflix has a better interface and is quickly becoming a one-stop shop for movies and many TV shows. Previously, Netflix was all movies and Hulu had control of the TV shows but that has since changed. Netflix... (more)
Start by sitting down and listing all of the classes and the approximate time you think you will need to put into each class to come out with the best grade possible. Then try to schedule all of your other activities, including work, if possible,... (more)
I personally like to just watch the movie or TV series if it is something that interests me. No need to go through the book beforehand because the book can serve as a type of spoiler which makes watching the movie or TV show no fun. There is an... (more)
I used a tutor online once before and found him to be quite helpful on a particular subject. But since I am a tutor (English, writing, psychology, health sciences) I do believe the experience is beneficial and encouraging to many students. I tutor... (more)
Communicate consistently and frequently. It's important to talk about the same things you would talk about face-to-face. Send each other text messages or video messages. Talk over the phone, WhatsApp, or FaceTime. Let them know when you're... (more)
I'd have to say I agree with Victoria's answer. It all depends on the subject being taught and how well you think you understand the subject. For example, for me, I struggle with math, so sitting in a math class is not the best way for me to... (more)
I would say to create an agreement beforehand that delineates what each person is responsible for cleaning and ensuring that each person does what they are asked to do in a reasonable timeframe. A nice chore sheet posted on the fridge can add some... (more)
It is kind of funny but I could not decide between double majoring and a minor so I did a double major and a minor for undergrad. I would say to try to get a second major that's similar or a minor that's similar to avoid so many added credits.
I've used a loofah pad a couple of times in my life. I would say that if you use it more than 4 times within a month, you need to change it out at the turn of the next month. Loofah pads are pretty tough but at the same time you will never get all... (more)
I destress by walking/running and listening to music, doing word search puzzles, just walking through a shopping center or mall, and watching Netflix.
I do my most productive writing assignments in my bedroom, sitting on my bed. I do my most productive reading when I'm traveling -- Ubering or Lyfting somewhere, waiting at an appointment, on break at work. My second best place would be Starbucks... (more)
I would say it is better to space them out. Typically, general education classes are the easiest in college and they only last for about 1-2 years so you'll only have them for your freshman and sophomore years. Then, you'll want to focus on your... (more)
I would say if you're still trying to decide on a major as a freshman, start with something that you like, love, or are remotely interested in. That will at least get you closer to a major than taking random classes. For example, if you like... (more)
Yes, I took summer classes every school term throughout undergrad and grad school. One reason is because I was a double major in undergrad.The other reason is that I felt as if I stayed out of school like over the summer I would lose a little mojo... (more)
Ask. Ask. Ask. Until you get one. I have found that a good number of professors or faculty members are willing and open to giving advice or answering questions or just telling you bits and pieces about what they know if you simply ask them to. I... (more)
It is possible to balance an internship and a part-time job alongside school. But one would have to ensure they manage their time wisely and do as much as they can to avoid burnout. There is nothing like having ambition and goals but being too... (more)

I find that doing word search puzzles is relaxing and getting into a series on Netflix and watching until you fall asleep. My favorites are detective/crime/medical type TV shows.
I have held a number of part-time jobs throughout my college years. I would say that it is a good idea to put your resume/application out there to as many places as possible that who are interested in and that are hiring. The college years are a... (more)
