Pace yourself! Set a schedule and stick to it. Read for 20 mins and then take a 5-10 min break. Don't stress yourself by reading too much of one subject. Join a study group and break up the material so you can share outlines.

The first semester is the worst! We had so much reading, assignments,lab check offs it was crazy.  One thing I did to make myself less stressed was to focus on what needed to be done for that week.  Don't look to far ahead because it was overwhelming.  When you need to read a large amt of materials find a nice quiet place without distractions if you can.  This will help you stay focused. Good luck!
