When it comes to studying and academic success your time is your greatest tool. Understanding how you use your time and how to create a schedule that balances work and relaxation is important.
The specifics of this balance is going to be based on you as a student, but also the volume of work you are being asked to complete.
Good time management takes practice and the earlier you start trying different strategies and taking it seriously the sooner you will start to have more success. This is especially important for students who would like to continue on into post-secondary education.
This is a valuable skill to develop not just in terms of your academics but for future employment and life in general.
