How to survive your first year in uni

(from a 3rd year student that only learned all this this past semester)

(applicable to other stages of your academic life, ofc, i was needing this advice rn in the end of my bachelor's)

1. Find ways to be interested in all classes.

Being it by watching documentaries/movies, wanting to be the smartass that knows quantum physics in family reunions, or wanting to tutor your crush on maths (not me doing that to learn integrals lol). You have to at least find a short term motivation to study for that class. That's the most important bit to be able to study it. But of course you also have to be interested in your classes, so try to watch tv shows about it to make it look cooler. (me watching big bang theory and realizing I understand some physics equations)

2. Find other people who are also interested in your classes

For example, this year in radiations class, i would have given up on being on track with the classes if my friend wasn't a master in radiations. They always answer my curiosity questions, and give me fun facts, so it helps me be interested in it. Also, other people's enthusiasm about a course is going to make you so much more excited about it.

3. Ask questions to your teachers.

I promise it won't be dumb. And even if it is, i promise it won't be in the top 10 dumbest questions they ever had to answer in their career.

My rad prof said in our first class that a master's degree student had once asked her what is a photon, and she answered bc there is no shame. (he was a comp sci undergrad, so he genuinely didn't know) That helped me feel more at ease asking her questions tbh, bc now i feel like every question is valid.

4. Don't worry if you are unsure about your future.

Everyone is. The only ppl that aren't unsure are the Rory Gilmore's of this world that had the same dream for so long that they don't even know if it's still their dream or not.

You're still changing, literally during my first year i had two different mental breakdowns thinking I chose the wrong degree. Which was just the stress and uncertainty speaking, bc im still very much enjoying my degree lol. (and the funniest bit, one of those mental breakdowns was me thinking i wanted to switch for computer science, but now i think that wouldn't do it for me. I changed my interests so much since then)

5. Make time for friends.

Both your "old" friends and trying to meet new ones. It will help you not to go insane during exams period lol. Also, try to talk to students from the years above you, they'll have so much advice to give you (you just have to say you're a newbie in uni, and they'll literally start rambling about their 1st year mistakes, at least that's what me and my friends do with the new kids lol)

Lazy/ADHD Brain School Tips

Didn't do the reading? If you need to write an analysis and your teacher doesn't let you use other study materials or you can't find anything like litcharts/sparknotes for the book, some Goodreads reviews of books have a huge summary and analysis section that you can learn from quickly!

haven't been paying attention in class and tests are coming up? type your study guide questions into chatgpt to generate study materials (DON'T SUBMIT THIS AS YOUR ANSWERS IF YOU'RE TURNING IN THIS STUDY GUIDE, it's just for studying)

hard time reading big text blocks online like webpages or pdfs? speechify is a browser extension that'll read it to you.

Hard time putting pen to paper to write? DICTATE THAT SHIT

by extension, ask your teacher if you can record their lectures with audio and can listen to the lecture again if need be. MAKE SURE TO ASK OTHERWISE IT'S ILLEGAL IN SOME PLACES

[janeaustensgf123]

In the Hunger Games, Katniss mentions an electrical fence in district 12 that prevents people from going down to the lake. In the TBOSAS, no fence was mentioned. I know it was mentioned that there was a fence near the jail and the peacekeeper’s base, but does that mean that snow the one who decided to put up a fence near the lake after he fell out with Lucy?
