So far, I have been feeling more and more in control of my classes at CCSF. I have Had some minor setbacks, but it has been improving rapidly with my improved effort. I work a full time job, so full effort meant writing essays that usually took me until early morning to finish. It has been manageable so far even though, surprisingly, I get a lot less sleep than I had ever had.
My future advice for any working student is do not get a full time job unless you are absolutely required to. Working takes energy and time, two things that should be devoted to school. Barring those students that go to school to just socialize, all students should do their best because in the end they are going to school for benefits to themselves.
One more advice that i can offer is KEEP A PLANNED SCHEDULE. I have found it to be very useful. Especially now that most classes use Worth Publisher's portal cards. Schedules are also very helpful because it gives one something to start on. What I mean by this is that for people like me, who usually dont know what to start on first, get the help of having a study plan and knock out assignment after assignment quickly, efficiently, and conveniently.

As a full time student I do not suggest to get a full time job either. It will take 1/3 of your day off. Besides your work you have another 1/3 of day in class. So your spare time is nonly 1/3 of your day which is 8 hours. In this 8 hours you have to do everything you have to do in this day including having meals and sleeping. It really takes a lot of your sleeping time away and make you lack of enery tomorrow. I think if you need money you can apply financial aid and student loans then pay them back after you graduate and find a job. That's a not bad way.
This semaster I have a perfect schedule. Each class is arranged consectively with an 1-hour lunch time. I feel so happy I can have such a schedule.
