Also use a small Daytimer Book to arrange which days projects are due and plan time PRIOR to dates for actual study time. Some people need to write notes & others can just read through the text once maybe twice. Use a highlighter in your text book when you read the lesson. Find out if you are the type that needs to review the notes after you've written them. Sometimes just writing lots of notes is just busy "work" and you aren't really absorbing the information. It never hurts to ask a trusted teacher to give you their pointers. Stick with it, you've got the desire to do well !

IMHO - Too many notebooks is not time effective. One big divided one.
And a yellow or whatever highlighter.
