donotshelve asked: iCal vs. Google Calendars vs. paper agenda vs. other methods; what medium did you find best for homework, social/academic events, to-do lists? Is there any way to sync Calendars and iCal/which one did you use on your phone? I like to be as digital as possible, but it seems easier to write things like homework out, at least initially.

I do a combination of both. I use Google calendar and it syncs with my iPhone. (I’m not sure what the difference between iCal and google Cal is, but I just started using Google Calendar first.)

I write out to-do lists in notebooks, and I used to use a planner when I was in school. Now, it makes more sense to be almost completely digital.

Writing homework out by hand is SO important though. If for nothing else, it let’s you know what you have to do and what’s coming up. (And to reassure you that everything can be done!) Here’s a post I wrote about how to get ready for studying- you can see exactly how I write everything out!
