How many Tinder college babes have you done?
Not speaking specifically to eng, but keep your bag light. I used to write all my notes by hand, but now I simply type everything on my Surface. And GO TO CLASS! They wouldn't offer lectures if they felt it was not necessary.

You will get more efficient as time goes on, by halfway through semester one I bet you have developed strategies to cut down on that out of class study time by 75% or more. Just a learning process.
Good to start with being diligent and then scale it back as nessecary imo.
FT studies is definitely less overall hours than FT working imo. Just got to build up that efficiency and time management.

I tried this and it works wonders. Stuff I didn't understand when reading made so much more sense hearing it the second time. Stuff I understood, I saved time not having to go to that lecture.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Too bad I only kept up with it for about 2 weeks.

You will definitely be able to optimize... but if it's anything like when I went through eng school, you have no choice but to do so. It got progressively harder/higher workload all the way until 4th year haha, which was significantly easier than 3rd year.
+1 good for you going back to school.
I was always fed this lie haha. Even with a lighter course load, I found 4th year the hardest to focus with all the group projects and meetings. Fewer assignments, sure, but I swear 4th year content was the toughest and hardest to wrap my head around because I was slipping into an "I don't give a shit anymore" mindset lol.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

but seriously, good luck. Since it's something you've always wanted to do and now you're doing it, that in itself is rewarding enough.
I also thought 4th year was easier than 3rd, but it may be because it was less stressful since I knew I was near the end of the road.
3rd year, you've been in school for a while and you're burnt out knowing you still have 2 more years.
100% 4th year engg is much harder than 3.
1st year is culture shock, but not technically hard.
2nd year you get a taste of hard shit.
3rd you are really doing some hard shit.
4th so long as you aren’t one of those people who tries to do their entire senior project in 2 weeks it’s a walk in the park. You have electives and the only course that was actually hard all year was vibrations. 1 hard course is way better than the usual 10.

Also, after dicking around for years 1 and 2, I was on academic probation for my 3rd year, so I really had to bust my ass in the hardest year. Additionally, my final project group was just me and a buddy (another beyonder actually), so that was not too taxing. Those two things, and electives, are what made 4th year seem like a joke in comparison to 3rd, for me anyhow.
Thought I would chime in on this thread. I'm back in school, final semester SAIT Geomatics. 35 years old now and recently married (7 months). BSc from U of C in Geoscience.
Tips and Tricks I have learned:
WORK HARD!!! - I have never worked this hard in post secondary. I thought SAIT would be easy and get a little extra expertise for diversifying my career. It isn't... it so fucking isn't.
KEEP UP WITH THE WORK!! - Even when you keep up with the homework, profs delight in giving tight deadlines, and they can be very inflexible.
REVIEWING NOTES - Some people rewrite their notes every day after class for memorization etc. This is probably ideal, but I don't got time for that so I dedicate an hour or 2 after classes to review what I did for the day and plan for the next day. Don't do this at home. you'll always find something better to do.
MEMORY NOT AT GOOD AS THE KIDS - You're not as good at remembering as the kids, in general, brain not as fresh and we other things to think about, but your work ethic and dedication is better, this is your advantage.
THE KIDS KNOW YOU ARE OLD - Don't try and relate to them, kids are stupid and retarded, and you are old as their parents or uncles etc, find some nerds and study with them in a group. Party only when you got nothing to do for the next couple days, and in those rare cases PARTY HARD!
My tip: Double space after the period is no longer a thing.

I still do it cause old habits die hard. Not that it matters, since word processors and browsers adjust for it anyways which is why I never bothered adjusting for it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
