Episode 128: Building a Study Schedule That Fits Your Life
While consistency is key, your study schedule should never be set in stone. Calendars are iterative and need to adapt based on what is happening in your life. In this highly practical episode of Success Unlocked, I reveal everything you need to know about planning (and revising) your calendar during a hectic or transitional period, whether preparing for the LSAT or working on your grad school application. Discover how to build an effective, burnout-free schedule that truly works for you and keeps you on track — no matter what else may be going on in your life!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why you should avoid relying too heavily on AI-assisted schedules (no matter how convenient they may seem!)
- How to identify your priorities, flexibilities, and non-negotiables, so that your calendar fits your needs
- What you need to consider when creating your calendar — and how to customize your study schedule and strategy
- How one of our amazing Apply Yourself clients enjoyed a glorious ten-day vacation in Italy without derailing her application process (and the #1 thing she did right!)
