This used to be my schedule, but now I can't afford to miss any classes (attendancy requirements).
Now I am catching up on what I missed this semester while fighting urges to procrastinate.
Oh also if I don't pass every course, they will throw me out of college as I messed up 1st semester and failed 2 courses already

11-18 does not sound like enough job. Most competive economics and econometrics programs in Western Europe usually take 9-10 hours a work a day for five days a week

If you have an access to modafinil, it might be a good investment during the exam season for a week or two. Definitely would avoid making it a habit because the legally gray area and potential for addiction.

means how you define "access", an12 year old kid can buy it off of tor even (plus I'm pretty sure it's cheaper than the "street rate" in my college)

TU Delft here (Technische Wiskunde), my average is 8.5, here is what I did to git gud:
Go to all lectures and instruction classes. Don't just sit there, but take notes and pay attention.
Stop seeing weekends as "time to chill and relax". I see weekends as an opportunity to catch up on things I didn't do during the week (usually there is still a lot of time left to relax anyway).
Have two different notebooks for each subject. One for notes in lectures, one for the exercises.
How many ECs do you have already?
Good luck, future competitor.
