No matter how much I try to plan, deadlines creep up, and I end up rushing through everything last minute. It’s exhausting! How do you all handle balancing schoolwork with everything else? Any practical tips that actually work?

Great points! I also think breaking tasks into smaller chunks makes a big difference. I use a planner to map out my week and set realistic goals each day. It’s easier to stay on track when you have a visual plan. Another thing that’s helped me is using downtime effectively—like reviewing notes during commutes or listening to recorded lectures while doing chores.
