Some words of advice . . . A&P is a beast, don't let yourself fall behind because you will never catch up. You have to spread the homework over the entire week ... Just try your best. Make sure to study what the teachers give out and put your heart into it. If you can, find something that you have in common in what you read and be interested!
More words of advice . . . Have a good support system of people around you who will keep you motivated and not distract you. Try not to have too much anxiety over the tests. There is always someone in your shoes at the same time. Be prepared and manage your time well, make sure you study and work to obtain your final goal - graduation!
