What's your weekly routine? Specifically, for those that are at least a third year student with at least a 3.5 GPA.

Senior, 4.0. Gonna make a 3.0-3.5 this semester though.

Weeks that I don't have exams coming up:

  • Get about 6-8 hours a sleep a night

  • go to all of my classes, do all of my labs and homework whenever I have time. No strict schedule, I take many little breaks

  • Spend about 1-3 hours a day either wasting time on reddit, watching anime, playing video games, or playing sports depending on semester.

  • Spend about 1-4 hours a day on my research project and senior design, Sometimes I spend much more time than this if I have to.

  • I take about 1-3 hours break for breakfast, lunch, dinner, shower. Basically whenever I feel like hungry or when i want to take a break.

  • Take friday and saturday off, or just one of those days

Weeks that I have exams coming up within the next week

  • Still go to all of my classes, still do all of my homework

  • don't work as much on senior design and research

  • study while eating breakfast, lunch, dinner. Once again, no strict schedule, I just eat when i am hungry

  • spend about 2 hours a day on extracurriculars (reddit)

  • i study like 12-14 hours on friday/saturday

  • try to get as much sleep as possible, aiming for 8 hours a night
