WOW!! I don't know how you do it! It takes me about a month to get through enough studying for just one exam, and that's with not working or really anything else. Really, how do you do it!? Congratulations!

Hey everyone! I'm taking a break from ALEKS Precalculus right now to say THANK YOU SO MUCH!! for all your supportive comments. To be honest though, all of you are the ones that I look up to as you're the ones who set the path for people like me to take charge of their education and degrees.
My #1 secret that helped with this is The Pomodoro Technique. Basically, I study in 25 minute increments with 5 minute breaks. After every 25 minutes or a "pomodoro", I take a 5 minute break. After 4 "pomodoros", I take a 15 minute break.
For IC and preparing for multiple exams, I'll do 4 pomodoros of one subject and then 4 pomodoros of another.
I let no distractions get to me in those times. No phone, no other websites, no people - just pure studying. When I don't do it, I notice that I get more sluggish because I feel like "this studying will never end!" but when I know that a break is around the corner, I can tell my brain to be quiet and focus as it will get a break soon.

I didn't know that was an actual technique! I tend to do basically that, but without set time periods... I'll have to try set timespans as I study for midterms.
Amazing job, keep it up!!
