How do I balance the time between becoming a polyglot (studying, etc.) and actually studying for school?

Time management is the ideal way to balance studying languages and studying for school. Taking out between 30 minutes to 1 hour every day to review vocabulary or grammar helps you memorize and retain information. Treating language training as part of your school curriculum is an essential part of balance. A word of advice: don't try learning multiple languages at once. You will experience burnout and not remember any of the language. Take it one step at a time and be patient; languages are complex and no one can learn a language completely in one day.
