I cannot understate the importance of taking notes. I take handwritten, because it helps me remember better. Handwritten, and then I transcribe them into my computer so I’m reading and writing them over and over again.
You might feel self conscious at college. Do not be. I’ve seen people literally napping on the floor, nobody has judged me for using a cane at my age, or for carrying around a stuffie for comfort.
Check your professors on Rate My Professor before you register for their classes. Do this before registration even opens, make a top 3 list of “when I check registration, I’m looking for this professor. If I can’t get her, I go for number 2”
Do not take all your easy classes than all your hard classes. Same some easy A’s to take WITH a hard classes so you’re taking a “full load” but like.. don’t take English and Math at the same time. Do English and.. Psychology, and business computer applications

And you’re never as prepared for the stem classes as you think you are.
