Us college students have so much stress in our lives from grades to our social lives that we have started learning how to manage our stress slowly, and hopefully this semester will not be as stressful as the last! There are many ways to survive this upcoming semester, but here are five of them!

1. Make A Schedule

We all should be organizing! Try scheduling your work hours, your classes, and a study time as well as other times! Being organized can hep tremendously!

2. Study For At Least 2 Hours For Each Class

Try studying for your classes if you haven't already. I know it's something we all dread and would rather spend the time watching Netflix instead, but it needs to be done! One of my math teachers suggested this at Asbury: "Schedule two hours for every class you have." It really helps a lot!

3. Plan Time With Friends And Homework Equally

Try planning time with friends and homework equally! Last semester was not that great for me, partially because I wanted to spend time with my friends and never made time for homework. One of my friends would constantly ask me to do homework with them. I couldn't--because for me and I know some of you can relate--I cannot do homework while talking with my friends or while watching TV. I tend to lose focus, and everything is too distracting. If you have this problem, I suggest managing your time wisely, maybe even equally!

4. Schedule A Sleep Time

Try going to bed early! Waking up refreshed is a great way to start the day, and is better for your body. Don't cram homework in until 1 a.m. Try the homework schedule described above, and go to sleep at a reasonable time. Your body will thank you!

5. Get A Tutor

If you've tried everything, but a tutor... Get a tutor! Maybe it'll help you get better grades, or help you understand something better. Don't keep yourself in the dark, or struggling!
