The Cat In The Hat:
I feel desperately behind after precisely one week, how do I stop this happening?

If it's about the feeling, there's not a lot you can do. Sometimes I'm ahead and yet I still feel overwhelmed. Best way to deal with it is probably just do whatever makes you feel comfortable and take frequent breaks.

With actually falling behind and preventing it, probably try and set scheduled study times for certain things. ie. if you have weekly homework/quizzes, set aside time around your timetable to work on these things. Even for things that might not necessarily be locked in like assignments you might want to set aside time weekly to work on them. One of the many things that's harder about uni is the lack of a rigid timetable - it's so much easier to be in school and be told precisely what to do, when to do it and where you have to do it. Making your timetable slightly more rigid may help with that (but be wary of making it too much so that you feel a bit suffocated).

Hey everyone,

I have a random question and was wondering if someone could please help me:

Do university tutors/ markers prefer that you put your references in alphabetical order?

Thanks in advance!

You need to follow the conventions of the referencing system you are using, in my experience this has almost always included listing references alphabetically by author last name.

It depends on the referencing you use

Some referencing formats use author year in alphabetical, and others such as Vancouver referencing use numbers - with no alphabetical order 😊 always check with the unit coordinator with referencing requirements (or use what the faculty your under uses if there's no preference is a safe bet)
