SUMMARY
Time management is one of the biggest hurdles students will have to face while at university. Effective organization and time management are vital to academic success- here are some tips to help get you started!
Top Five Tips:
- Plan out your semester
Get a four-month calendar to plan out your term (available from the UBC bookstore). Write down the dates of term papers, midterms, presentations, and any other important academic dates.
- Organize your week in detail
Use a weekly planner to map out how you will accomplish your weekly tasks. Use the Assignment Calculator for help with setting milestones for your papers.
- Work hard, play hard, sleep hard!
Plan activities according to your Energy Cycle. Take advantage of times when you are at your best!
- Even a little study time helps…
Maximize your time by studying between classes, on the bus, etc. Even 5 minutes of reading/studying is better than none!
- Quality, AND quantity!
Use the wedging technique (video) as recommended by McMaster University, to beat procrastination and make the best use of your time.
