Just in case anyone dares to ask about the validity of our advice again, here are my qualifications for this topic:I am smarter than you.

Due dates are imaginary. The quicker you learn this, the quicker you’ll be successful.

If you need some extra cash, professors love it when you ask them for money — it makes them feel useful.
Do not do extra credit assignments. They are for nerds.
