Try to balance your workload so that you have a few “easier” classes in the same semester are more labor-intensive ones.

For instance, you could reward yourself with one night out a week as long as you are caught up on all your classwork.

For example, you can choose to meet your study group once a week, or several times before each exam.

You could say, “You know, Professor, I am only one-tenth of a point away from graduating magna cum laude. How you do feel about recommending me for the honor based on my dedication to veterinary science and medicine?”
