1. Many students who study and work have to balance their schedules carefully. They have to make time to go to class, go to work, and also complete their homework. If they don't plan their time carefully, they may not be able to meet these obligations and then they will face serious consequences. They may lose money by not making time for work or they may get bad grades in their classes by not having time to study. After these obligations are met, there are other activities many students enjoy like spending time with friends, doing hobbies, or dating. They will not have time for these extra activities without balancing their schedules first. It can be very difficult for students to make time for all of their obligations, but it is essential to their success. ​
