Your perspective on this is wrong. Nothing great comes without sacrifice. You cannot have your cake and eat it too.
I do not really see it like that, I am just trying to make the most of what I have and evaluate where I should make those sacrifices. It seems like a lot of people on this forum are able to manage both, and I want to ask if that is possible and how it is done
Depends on how much you want to give and take.
Overall if college was the best 4 years of your life then your life really sucked. But to answer your question...
After 3 years in the industry hours get easy if you're good at politics and jump to the right platform.
So basically, I would focus entirely on education/jobs for the first semester or quarter, then tail off and party as you see fit. Everyone is different, if you can party + get stellar grades then go for it but at the end of the day your job is the most important goal at your age which is a combination of good grades and work experience.
So after you get a feel for your abilities, start partying and constantly tiering up in financial internships over the years
