Descripción

I'm on a mission to crack the code of university success. My challenge? Nailing that sweet 4.0 GPA without sacrificing my precious weekends. Oh, and one more thing—I'm determined to be less busy than the average student. But I can't do it alone, that's why I'm here to chat with students from some of Canada's top universities to uncover their secrets to academic greatness while still having time to hang out with friends, and do fun stuff. Because let's be real, university should adapt to fit our lives, not the other way around. So, without further ado, let's dive into the conversation and discover how to be a student without losing our sanity—or our weekends! Sebastian is a second year Computer Science major at the University of Toronto. We talk about his daily routine, how he deals with procrastination, and the lessons he's learned after his first year at university. And yes, he's also a gamer. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
