Getting the Right Party/Study Balance

Concerned your party/social life may interfere with your grades? Worry not, Al's here to show you how it's done!   Dear Agony Al, I arrived on campus 6 weeks ago, made some great new friends, but have spent the majority of my time with them partying like a man possessed. It’s great fun, but how can I get the balance between the books and beer right over the next 4 years? Cheers fella. Mark, 19 years, Wisconsin   Mark, Work hard play hard is Agony Al’s motto. First set yourself targets with study. If you don’t meet those targets then you don’t reward yourself with party session. If you are anything like Agony Al you’ll soon be meeting these targets and then some! ...Oh and don’t be giving yourself easy reachable targets. The beer will taste a lot better when you’ve worked hard for it! You’re welcome Al xxx
