I don’t think I’m at my saturation point yet. I only take one class every four weeks and work comes around every once in a while, but it’s not an extraneous load Great post.

I'd love to see some analysis on getting the most credits for the least amount of work :) Interesting way of looking at things.

I don’t think I’m at my saturation point yet. I only take one class every four weeks and work comes around every once in a while, but it’s not an extraneous load. I’m overcomplicating my notes right now, actually. I typed them, crossed referenced with my textbook, Westlaw’s contract database, ABA, I also added footnotes and diagrams. It seems pretty helpful right now. I don’t usually study because I hate my “note-taking” handwriting; it makes my classmates wonder how I do so well. If I'm bored or stressed I burn out.I usually play Grand Theft Auto(The ultimate Driver's Ed, IMO) and things balance out. Great post. I don’t think I’m at my saturation point yet.
