I read the article '10 tips for college students' and was very intrigued by it. While I consider myself an 'above average student' in the sense that my college GPA is 3.6, I struggle immensely with concentration, time management, and learning speed. This has followed me all through life, but I've only finished two semesters of formal schooling, so it's really just surfacing now. I can't imagine being able to handle much more than 17 hours, and getting all As is hard enough with just 15 hours. I am also a perfectionist who hasn't entirely forgiven myself for this.

You've mentioned many times that you are a fast learner. How do you think the lessons you learned in college could apply to someone like me?
