School/Academia Help

I’m taking 6 courses this semester. Only 2 of them are on the hard side (orgo 2 and orgo 2 lab) but I’m wondering if it’s possible to get As in all my classes this semester?

I’m graduating right after but I’m really struggling and want to raise my CGPA a number higher if not more. Any advice? Just on how to study how to not get burnt out and how to enjoy life as well without feeling like mush everyday. I’m one of those people who self studies everything because I often fall asleep in class or don’t pay attention because I’m tired or unmotivated to be there 😵‍💫

I’m also just so alone 🤧 and don’t interact with anyone anymore because of certain circumstances and paranoia 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂

5 is the standard. Depending on what program Ur in and how well u manage Ur course, 5 should be doable.

"I’m graduating right after but I’m really struggling and want to raise my CGPA a number higher if not more." Are you planning to go to grad school? If not the cgpa doesn't really matter imo.

Study smarter not harder. No need to go to your lectures, I never did and got straight A’s although it’s great to just know at least one person who attends lectures to ask if prof mentioned specifics for midterms/exams. As long as you have access to lecture slides, you’re fine. What you want to do is 15-30 min review for your most important classes a day, spaced repetition is key. Avoid cramming last minute. Active recall is your best friend, DO NOT MAKE PASSIVE NOTES THINKING ITS STUDYING!😭 Seriously, it’s doable if you manage your time. I recommend planning each week with a planner with what times you’ll study/rest/work. Best of luck!

Orgo 2 lab is a separate course from orgo 2.

Thanks for the advice on how to avoid burnout tho, I’m just finding it hard especially when the weather gets colder
