Preparing for My Weekly Schedule in College
The transition into college is stressful enough with the financial part, but when you add in
the fact that now you have to adjust your whole schedule to fit the need of school, working, a
social life, sleep, and everything else between it the stress could overwhelm anyone. That is why
coming up with a time management plan is such a great idea. Its important to be responsible and
figure out the best way for you to utilize your time.

example, one week I might have an appointment to go to, get called into work early, or have
more homework, the possibilities are endless.

Reflection
When the Current Time Usage and Post-Secondary Time Usage charts are compared
there are a few major differences and a few things that stay relatively the same. The biggest
changes are the number of social hours available and how many hours Ill be working. The
biggest cause for that will be because of moving out there wont be restrictions for when I can
and cant go out, but moving out comes with having a lot more expenses that will fall on me to
cover. There was about a 7 hour decrease in number of hours Ill be in class, but the 6 hour
increase on amount of hours needed to spend on homework balanced it out. I assume that I might

not have as many assignments due every day, but that Ill be given essays/papers/projects that
will be due every week. With that said, the best way to get them done on time without stressing
out would be to do a little bit each day or get it done before the due date so then there wont be a
need to stress out hours before the assignments due. In honesty the two things that worry me the
most is trying to manage my finances and getting the homework done, that is why I tripled the
amount of hours Ill be working and bumped up the number of hours put aside for homework. I
am surprised by the fact that I have way more time for social activities, but Im guessing my
estimations arent exactly correct and in reality Ill have around 30 hours a week for socializing.
