Some additional advice:
Take the courses that you are most likely to get the best mark in. If there are two options to fill your credit requirement, don't be silly and "challenge yourself". Starting out I felt post-secondary was a grand place of learning, do not fool yourself, they are there to make money. Doing a very challenging course is rewarding, but only do so if you can sacrifice the time it will take to get a good grade.
I just broke my rule and am taking a course I shouldn't have lol.

If there is one thing that I can suggest, being a junior at a university, is that the whole "procrastination" thing you did in high school will not transfer to success in college. Waiting until the last minute is quite detrimental to your grade as you are more likely to put less effort into work as well as lack editing for written assignments. Do not waste time. Utilize it wisely!
This is very true, good advice! If you're a smart person in high school and you've been breezing by on your smarts and good memory it doesn't take you as far in post-sec. You will have to put in the work.
You figured this out as a junior I'm impressed took me a while lol. Now if you'll excuse me, instead of researching for my paper I have to convert cex to dex!
