10 time management tips for students

Tips 5-10

Tip 5. Review your notes every day.

Reviewing helps you reinforce what you’ve learn, so you need less time to study before a test.  You’ll also be ready if you get called on in class or have to take a pop quiz.

Tip 6. Get a good night sleep.

Your brain needs rest to perform at its peak. Lack of sleep makes the day feel longer and your tasks seem more difficult.

Tip 7. Communicate your schedule to others.

If phone calls and text messages are proving to be a distraction, tell your friends that you are only available during certain times of the day and not to expect a response at other times.

Tip 8. Become a taskmaster.

Give yourself a time budget and plan your activities accordingly. Figure out how much free time you have each week before you add any commitments.

Tip 9. Don’t waste time agonizing.

Instead of agonizing and procrastinating, just do it. Wasting an entire evenings worrying about something that you’re supposed to be doing is not productive, and can increase your stress.

Tip 10. Determine your priorities.

You can’t do everything at once. Establish the importance of each item. Then set realistic goals that are attainable.
