Do You Manage Time or Does Time Manage You?
1- Gifted you the usually base their success on time management and organisation in addition to their innate abilities.
It is difficult to set a fixed time table for your life and studies because other factors (like holiday, family and friends, leisure activities) may interfere. Read and follow the suggested steps:
- Plan your weekly timetable so you ensure that time is set aside for study.
- Begin with the fixed commitments set by your school such as the timing set for different school subjects.
- Find a slot in your timetable for out-of-class study (writing assignments, previewing, reviewing, reading, studying for tests and exams…)
- Don’t forget to include some time for your social events and leisure activities.
