Struggling with Finance and Industrial Engineering Major

Hey all,

I am currently pursuing a double major in Finance and Industrial Engineering and finding it challenging to balance both. The workload and complexity of subjects in both fields are overwhelming, and I am unsure how to manage my time effectively or which resources to rely on for better understanding. Has anyone else been through a similar experience? and I also read this https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/forum/investment-banking/feeling-like-an-outcast-in-this-ib-world-struggling-academicallygolang-vs-java. If Any tips on study strategies, time management, or specific resources that could help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your support....
