I also have a syllabus that I have to follow for this course. I tend to check my syllabus and make sure that I write down when things are due. This way, I know when I have to study for different things, and when to do them. Just make sure that you follow all instructions given by your teacher, and stay organized and on top of your assignments and you should be fine. Good Luck!!

Before I scare you though, I will add that I'm in college, and the course I took was basically meant to weed people out, so it was INCREDIBLY difficult. What I'm saying is, I'm sure your course won't be as difficult as mine was, so I don't think you need to worry about that. My suggestions to you though, are to take as many notes as possible. I don't know if you'll be able to communicate with your online instructor at all. I wasn't able to for the course I took, but if you can, take full advantage of this. In online courses, you almost have to teach yourself, because the teacher is not present. But if you are able to ask for outside help from your online instructor, do so, if need be. Keeping a binder will also help keep you as organized as possible. Anything else, just ask, I know all about online courses. :] [ cOws_in_yOur_tuba's advice column | Ask cOws_in_yOur_tuba A Question ]
