Hi All,

I only just realised that this sub-forum exists, probably be able to use it again!

I'm a first year undergrad, doing a bachelor of arts...

Currently on a study break but I have 3 assignments due at the end of September. Not sure whether I should focus on starting the assignments or taking a breather from the work...

Any advice?

Good luck with all your studies everybody.

Perhaps you could start each of the three projects now and clock the time it takes you do do an initial section. That would allow you to estimate how long it would take you to complete all three projects in clock hours. You would then know how to pace yourself to get them completed by the end of Sept. and whether or not taking a break is feasible.

This technique helped me immensely in undergrad and grad school.

Good idea thanks, Lulu. I will make a start on three projects and keep an eye on how long it is taking me. I have to watch myself otherwise when I get close to burnout, I am no good at all and have to stop completely.

Cheers for the advice, much appreciated.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
