Back-to-School: Planning Time and Tasks

You’re heading back to school. You’ve got your books. You’ve got your syllabus. You’ve got your pencils and notebooks. And you’re even feeling great about your class schedule. You’ve got this. Only one question remains. When are you going to do the work?

Turns out, that’s a pretty big question and one you are perfectly capable of answering! This week on the show we’re talking all about time and tasks; how do you organize not only the due dates of your assignments and test schedule, but how do you manage the time you have to put in to do the actual work, writing, and studying of being a successful student?
