Again, echoing what others are saying:
Get enough sleep.
Get enough exercise.
Eat well.
Drink plenty of water in class.
Eat a snack during class (granola bar, etc. just beware of too many calories)

New material:
1) When you drive between classes, don't worry about showing up late. Better 10 minutes late than a visit to the hospital.
2) Take a weekend and pre-scan all of the material. Read the table of contents. Scan through the book, spend 10 seconds or so on every picture. Read the caption, and look at the picture. (This wil help you get a good idea of the material very quickly so that the stuff in class will make more sense than if you were hitting it cold.)
3) Relax. Stress will kill you. Don't sweat the workload too much. All of the classes are the mickey mouse gen-ed classes. Sure, it's a bit time commitment, but not really a big work commitment.
