The document provides tips for staying organized and managing your time in the fall semester. It recommends making thorough to-do lists and assigning time increments to activities. Use a print or online calendar and schedule to keep track of tasks and upcoming events. Sync your calendar with your phone and set reminders. "Like" tasks can be grouped together for efficiency. Prioritize by doing harder tasks first and saving easier ones for breaks. Eliminate distractions and reward yourself for completing tasks. Refocus priorities as needed and learn to say no when overcommitted.
