Sleep and relax now bc your whole world will be school..say good bye to social media if your on one lol good look

Thanks so much! I wont lie...I have a twitter, fb, snapchat and ig so social media is gonna be difficult to cut out but its worth it. Thanks for the good luck wishes, im so excited

I agree, rest up now. It's an entire different world from regular classes. I have social media as well. I didn't give it up, but I'm going to limit it more come next semester. Stay ahead and take it one chapter, one class, one day at a time. But for now....REST!!

I'd also add think about how you can better organize yourself. It will take some trial and error in study and organizing habits to figure out what works best for you. But get a good planner or find a good app on your phone for keeping track of deadlines and such. Also think about if you're a book highlighter, note writer, PowerPoint printer, etc. You may not know how they organize your class yet (if they make powerpoints, allow computers for note typing, etc.) but it's at least something to think about and keep in mind as you pack your bag for class.

Thanks so much guys. Studying is something ive definately never done and social media can be very tempting for me. Im a huge online shopper. My Pharm class is powerpoints and fundamentals is note taking lectures. Im gonna invest in some highlighters, A good planner, and some flashcard holders. I prefer a clipboard over folders. Its so nervewracking and exciting. Ill also have to work on my forgetfulness as far as packing.
