About this template
Deadlines are easy to miss when each course posts them in a different place. Week 10, when three assignments land together, is where most semesters go wrong.
Each course is a section with its assignments and exams dated from the start of term. A weekly planning task and study blocks keep you ahead.
Tips from the template
- Apply it in week one and copy in every date from each course outline.
- Add sub-tasks to large assignments so you start them early.
- Rename the course sections to your own courses.
