<p>Basically, as others have said, it’ll be hard but not impossible. I have plenty of friends who breezed through high school and then had to buckle down once they got to Swat - they all graduated, many with honors. </p>
<p>My biggest piece of advice would be to really take advantage of that first pass/fail semester. Don’t just slack off during it because you can. Take the opportunity to figure out what works for you for studying. For some people, that means studying in big groups in the library, for others it means a lot of time in their room by themselves.</p>
<p>Also, one piece of personal advice: don’t fall into the common Swat trap of losing sleep to do work late at night. If you plan out a little in advance, you can get eight hours of sleep a night. This, in the long run (I’ve tried both ways) dramatically increases daytime productivity.</p>
