Here are some additional tips for creating a class schedule that won’t keep you up at night:

• Reduce your course load. Really! Lots of students do this. Reducing your course load is an especially wise strategy if you are just starting university – you need time to adjust.
• Make sure you have enough time between classes, especially if you are on the north/main campus as running across campus for an exam is never fun!
• Aim to balance courses that you consider (or expect to be) hard with those that come more easily to you – just remember that easy doesn’t necessarily mean less work.
• And, ask yourself: am I excited about the term? If there is a class you are dreading, think about whether this is the best time to take it.
