I feel you on the struggle of staying engaged in online classes, especially with the pressure of pre-med courses. What helped me stay focused at Mississippi State University was creating a dedicated study space at home, away from distractions. Also, setting a strict schedule like I would for in-person classes kept me accountable. Another game-changer was forming study groups with classmates via Zoom.
It made learning interactive and less isolating. Meridian Community College might have resources like tutoring services or virtual study sessions which can provide that extra push. One thing that didn't work for me was trying to multitask during lectures. It's easy to get distracted by social media or chores, so I had to train myself to focus solely on class material.
My question for you is: have you reached out to professors for additional support? Sometimes discussing your struggles with them can lead to tailored advice for success. Keep pushing through – we've got this!
