I took Russian in college and I had it tons easier than the other students because of my Polish.

Of course you did. You had native-level Polish before attempting Russian. That's nothing like the OP's situation.

When it comes to learning closely related languages, it is a bad idea to start both together. The first step is to pick one and get it to at least (upper) intermediate, forgetting about the other one until then. If you want to use your languages for spoken communication, you'll get more out of becoming decent at one language than having two languages, neither of which you can use in real life for anything meaningful. This advice doesn't apply if you're just interested in advancing in duolingo, of course.
