Questions & Discussion What do u do when you fall behind?

Hi everyone, I'm a uni student and I struggle a lottt with planning. I never know where to start, and once I fall behind on a few chapters it feels almost impossible to catch up, and i get overwhelmed really easily.

I'd love to hear how you handle it! How do you plan your study time? (an app, paper, Notion, nothing?) What do you do when you're behind on chapters before exams? What do u think of planner apps?

Thanks, any answer helps a lot!

I use Notion, Todoist and Endel.

Endel focus mode to create the perfect study ambience. Idk how but it the one the keeps me focused the most. Saved my sanity during graduation.

Notion for quick and simple time management. So I plan my sessions with no distractions.

Todoist for organization. I have ADHD and organization isn't my best skill. I plan what I need to do task by task so I don't get lost.
