*Projects*

A lot of engineering courses have a course project. If you have one or more projects start working on them from now! It may seem early to you but at least brainstorm your project so that you do not have to work last minute when deadlines come up.

CAS tip of the week:

*Pre-Final Rush*

Although we only have less than two weeks left for finals, these two weeks are a flurry of assignments, quizzes, midterms, projects... and more projects. Try not to ignore these assignments in favor of studying for your finals. Remember, these also help prepare you for your finals and can significantly boost your grades!

Best of luck!

CAS tip of the week:

We're Back!!

Now that our short reprieve from university is over, it's time to get back to the routine of waking up early and studying daily. Remember, spaced learning is not only more efficient, but it also allows you more time off on the weekend! Keep up with your courses daily, and you will have some free time for more interesting things.

Finally we are all done with the midterms and now its time to relax and enjoy! Go to events organized by different ethnic AUS clubs and socialize with people so that you feel energetic and be ready for the next part of the semester because remember there are many more midterms to come and we have to get ready for them also. So, manage your time vigilantly.

CAS tip of the week:

*Balancing Studies and Extra-curricular activities*

With the Mohammad Assaf concert coming up, various club trips and activities, and everyday social responsibilities, make sure you do not fall behind in your studies. It is easy to forget all about studying once you have just finished your midterms; but remember, studying is a continuous process! Make sure you keep up with all assignments and quizzes by learning to limit your involvement in extra-curricular activities.

Remember, it is good to be involved in extracurricular activities, but do not let it effect your studies!

If you are struggling with taking midterms and quizzes! Do attend the workshop "Test Taking Strategies & Test Anxiety" as it will help you guide towards the right track!

Good luck! :)
