No one told me: "Group work = carrying lazy members." I Spent nights doing my part in a 5-person project, about a day and a half to deadline, most of my members had not done anything. I worked on the rest of the project solo and we ended up getting the same grades. This was so unfair that I hated groups from then. If you are joining a group, join one with hardworking members, those that participate in class and submit assignments first. It will save you a lot of deadline pressure and burnout.
