Scheduling: How to Plan Your Academic Schedule ROUGH

For us seniors, there’s only three more months until graduation! But for all you underclassmen (yes, that includes you juniors), you’ve guys still got a year or three ahead of you. With the summer approaching us like a train, now would be the perfect time to start planning ahead for year of 2012-2013. Here’s a few tips to keep in mind before you find yourself suffocating under AP courses, clubs, sports, and or volunteering.

Consider the difficulty of the course and of course, how many difficult courses you plan to take; try to balance out your schedule! Instead of five hours of non-stop learning, why don’t you take that ROP class and give yourself a break? I’m sure stacking on five APs will push you into the peak hours in the morning, and you’ll wake up feeling like you’re barely alive, but it is manageable (not that it’s recommended)... but be sure to take into account how much time you have aside from extracurriculars.

Extracurriculars this encompasses clubs, sports, and volunteering. As some athletes know, sports take up a major chunk of our daily schedules. Aside from daily 6th period to 4:30 P.M. practices, some sports require early morning practices as well, not to mention scrimmages or games that could last anywhere from two to four hours, weekly. Clubs like KEY Club, FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America), and Sierra club requires time commitment outside of the weekly regular meeting. If you want to rack up some volunteer hours, make sure to give yourself enough time to get your homework and studying done as well. The average volunteer attends their shifts bi-weekly for approximately two to three hours per shift.

From personal experience, I have met people who have began taking SAT/ACT classes since their Freshman year. If you’re an incoming junior, it would be best to start thinking about the SAT or ACT. Try to account for the hours that you will be spending prepping for these tests, but make sure that this priority comes after school work.

Time management is the key to planning a successful academic schedule. Organize your schedule so that it will challenge, but not completely exhaust you—find the perfect one that won’t suck up the remaining wee hours of your sleep, but will further assist in finding your academic interests.
