I'm finishing up my first semester and looking over the schedule for second semester, I am slightly terrified because of how much is going on in one day. It's not necessarily the amount of material, but more so seeing 7-8 lectures scheduled in one day.
This past semester, we mainly had lectures in the morning and sitting through four lectures straight was a feat in itself (sitting in a chair for four hours and not moving is dreadful). I slowly transitioned to watching lectures online at home simply because it was a better use of my time. But I don't think I can pull that stunt next semester and stay caught up daily.
So my question is - how do you stay focused/maintain concentration for 7-8 lectures from 8 AM - 4/5 PM. Can you even absorb anything you hear/learn in those last few lectures?
If you still watched lectures at home, how do you keep up so you don't fall behind? All advice, tricks, tips welcome to assuage my fears - thanks in advance!
