im stressed out atm cos i have lots of deadlines to meet, tests to revise for and a future at a university to think about. not to mention any homework or notetaking to add to the burden.
so how do you guys cope in testing times like these? it's caused me to go into a rut where i just shut down and stop doing basic things like my routine before bed or working out - or even just doing the actual schoolwork at all lol
so yeah

Best way to cope with it, is to not always dwell on the stressing parts, be thankful that you're allowing your freetime to be taken up by a lot of homework and notes etc. It takes a lot of determination to be able to consider that. And especially since its stressful, you're still focusing on education, which is good.
And Im in college as well, we get a bit of homework, and I can't be bothered to do it, cause i havent got the determination or whatever to be able to do it.
Understand that the hard work can pay off, if you really are willing to give it your all.

Tbh man the best way to deal with a workload is to take things a step at a time. Don't do multiple things if you're going to feel stressed by doing those multiple things.
Everyday I either have school or work or both. The best way to balance it is to do as I said. It's not always the same for everyone so find something that works for you.

Make a physical list of everything that you’re going to accomplish each day so you can cross tasks off as you get them done (I’ve found crossing tasks off to be motivating) and be sure to set aside time to do other things than just study and homework. It’s all about time management.

Write it down in a list. When updating P3D, if I dont write he stuff I need done down, I ALWAYS forget things. And then I have to cram it in and DONT RUSH or you end up having to do MORE WORK longterm. Like when I rush p3d udpates, I ALWAYS have to do another one to fix the stupid mistakes.

My best word of advice is to simply say wellness first. In life, we tend to constantly slave ourselves away, and at the end of the day, we burn out. This can be mentally and physically, life is an exhausting process. Also, learn to say no. I know many of us to tend to want to say yes, and we want to help as much as we can, but learning to say no really has saved me.
Manage your time, even though you have deadlines, learn to manage time. Make time for wellness as stated previously, and understand that regardless of how slow or fast you accomplish something, at the end of the day you'll reach your desired goal. Don't become a slave in a world where you have to work to live, make time for yourself & always take the time to fit in things you love to do, otherwise what purpose is living a life centered around constantly reaching the goals of 1.) school or 2.) your work. Live life!

i'd love to have pulled the burnout card but these deadlines are non-negotiable
