Scheduling & Time Management at Boston University
The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
Hey, everybody, thank you so much for clicking on this video a few things before we kind of really dive into this. So this is the last video how to college Siri's for me and I have had the greatest time putting together these videos because I really feel like they have improved my ability to kind of talk about my experiences, everything but also hopefully have given you a little bit of advice and just based off of my own experiences prepared you for your college experience. I did an interview a couple of weeks ago now, and the person who was interviewing me actually had seen these How do college of Videos? And she herself was going into college and really just mentioned how they really actually kind of helped her and prepared her for what to expect in college. It was really nice to hear, and it made me feel really good because I really put a lot into these videos, and it's nice to see that I just got glasses. Like as I'm getting older and as are doing more like schoolwork and I'm doing reading and I for like in looking like computer for, like hours and hours a day, it really helps. This really depends on the kind of person you are, who you're trying to be, what you're trying to go for. For me, I was somebody who at the start college, really just wanted to make sure I did everything that I wanted to make sure took advantage of the opportunities and really pursued the kinds of things. There will be people who called you Don't go to class, Really Go to class. It's things like those when I actually skip class, though I always go to class even because even if you're not necessarily getting something out of that our like, what would you really be doing with that? Our like you are gaining so much just from being there. Really? It goes a long way and then it then dismissed return to boost your grade. I really like morning classes, first semester of college. Knew that was a really great schedule, because by the time it hit like 12 o'clock, my brain starts to kind of shut down and go into, like, the lazy or part of the day. It had to get them done by noon for class really helped me just kind of jump and get on it. So by the time I got to class at 12 o'clock, I really felt like I had already done a productive day. It's gonna take a couple tries to see what really works for you. I don't really recommend going over five hours of class a day. It's really easy and really tempting just to one of load everything into one day and then just have the rest of the easy. My roommate last semester He had, like, class from like 9 to 9 on Mondays and then had like one class Tuesday Thursday and had the rest of the week off, which works for him. I know this is probably particular to BU. I don't really know much how it works and other schools, but your class sort of like layout looks like and everything. I'm able to do the homework and everything, plus, in dealing with the time construction of having a later class, that I actually have to get things done. Most of your meetings and extracurricular things will be in the evenings, so you really want to make sure you have usually Tuesday and Thursday evenings. Aaron, A lot of things happened, so last semester I was in my class of five. That's a really common time for people to meet Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings. So you really have to kind of work on the case by case basis. Try how different things and also understand that you're not gonna get like, only three days a week of class. Scheduling is definitely a really hard thing to Dio. I have learned so much about organizing my time, time management, everything my first year, and it's not something I can really talk about. It's really something you need to work on on your own and figure out what works best for you. I really like my digital calendar because I could check in on my laptop check on my phone so I don't need to have my laptop with me. I really like scheduling Mess is something I really like. Before you click away, I just want to say if you have any additional questions about your college experience, whether it be scheduling roommates, finding work, internships, any the videos that I've done for any other questions whatsoever, I really, really want to be a resource. If you really want to know about student life, I can definitely speak well for B. You and I can even mention just kind of things I've learned. If you're not going to be you some other school, I really want to act as a resource because I know I would have really benefited going into my freshman year from somebody like me that just kind of experiencing kind of give this advice like you're not gonna know this at first. Scheduling is really hard thing, and it's really gonna say it again in case Mickey Spaces, because some people really like to reserve time to relax. It really helped me be productive and get everything done. I know that sounds like a lot and it can be really overwhelming, but just doing that helped me keep on track on the day and just stay as productive as I needed to be. I still do it to this day, and it's something that really just makes effect. I have a lot more of a control on things and just really helps me out. I'm gonna be documenting all my travel stuff on the APP. My profile is a really cool map. It's gonna be a really cool way to bring you on tour with me.
