students and sleep

swimgal85 Posts: 11 Joined: 2004/09/22	2004/09/25, 10:19 AM I was just wondering if any of the other students/post-students had any advice about sleep. It seems like I can never get enough because I'm so busy, and I know that it is wreaking havoc on my health and my academic preformance.:( -------------- swimgal Getting through a horrible day and still feeling like you did your best is the biggest accomplishment. - unknown

My GPA is 4.0, I have 3 children and sometimes I even work full-time. Devote yourself to your studies, do all the things you must do and sleep after graduation. -------------- Anni ******* Hard work must have killed somebody

It's tough and unfortunately you just need to adjust for now. Try your best to get a good rest on the weekends if possible, otherwise just ride through it. Once school is finished it will take you about another year to get back to a normal (and healthy) sleeping schedule. At least it did for me. -------------- - Its never about how much you can lift, or how many reps you do.
