    Thanks for sharing! I also recently thrice best under that insane pressure but I don’t love it.

      I took as many summer courses as I could because it condensed a whole semester into a month. 3hr classes a day, test at the end of every week. I HAD to start studying and do homework at a certain time or I wouldn’t finish before it would cut way too much into my sleep. A whole month of regimented heavy pressure to do my work. Those were my best grades.

      Yeah, it’s okay when the work isn’t super challenging or you can stay on top of the workload coming in. But when the work becomes actually challenging and/or you start getting too much to stay on top of naturally it leads to burnout really fast which just sucks (like I’ve contemplated quitting a job I generally really like from it).
