IMHO, this "binding" is not nearly as cool as the publisher thinks it is. The pages are hole-punched to fit a standard 3-ring binder but the pages are smaller than 8.5"x11" so there's only room for two out of three holes. I had my version in a binder for barely a few weeks, hardly used, and the holes were already starting to tear. For ~$7 I took it to an office supply store to get re-punched and re-bound with a comb binding and the result is much better. Maybe even better than the glue bound version below, since that one can actually lay flat!
Buy the international version (glue-bound, not loose-leaf) on Amazon here.
This edition is much cheaper than from the publisher. It’s not intended for use in the US, but I can’t identify any major differences between it and the US version.

Course memo (TODO: Add missing link)
Progress Tracker (TODO: Add missing link)
Add the important class dates to your calendar, in particular the last dates for turning in work for each of the units.
Block off some time on your calendar each week to work on this class, preferably at a regular time and with some study buddies.
Put the rest of your semester's events in your calendar and then identify some weeks that will have a heavier workload than others. Make a note to remind yourself the week or two before then to get caught on all of your classes so that you can limit the amount of craziness that happens during your heavier weeks.
