#adderall Works like a charm

[quote=finkle]I do something else until I feel like studying again, which is a terrible method because I didn't feel like studying for all of finals week and pretty much didn't. I still did well in the classes that matter most, but owww my gpa. [/quote]

well i heard its good to take a 5-10 minute break after an hour or so of studying.

@nosonofronz my god... teach me master!

@natalie i cant listen to music really either. unless im doing something that doesnt require me to work my brain really

1) take nap... well, more like sleep for a few hours so that when i do study i'm not tired at all and i remember better
2) turn off music/anything distracting (i know that music actually helps certain people but it doesn't for me)
3) read over notes/the text, use highlighters, and doodle on the notes

one time when i was studying for a biology test back in high school i started drawing small pictures all over my notes and it helped me remember the material a lot better. i started scoring perfect on every quiz because all i had to do was think about the doodles that i drew associated with the text. i also wrote tiny notes around the notes that i already had, like if there was somebody that reminded me of a topic that i was studying i would add their name on there or something like that. it made studying a lot more fun for me because at least it didn't feel like i was just sitting there reciting the book

I'm self motivated enough where I can just sit down and study and stop when I feel my studying has been sufficient.
Then I sit back down and study some more.

Creepypasta to stay up all night..

< What things do you guys do to keep focus in studying?

I take Ritalin

<If you take a break, what do you do during your break?

Depends. Usually nap, sexy time with the lady, or watch hulu/netflix

Usually I'm self-motivated enough, I also study with a friend so when I get fed up I can chat to them for 10 or so minutes and then get back to it.

nice ign lol

i open some classical music on pandora (mozart station), turn off all the lights except the desk lamp, and scan through my notes, googling whatever i don't completely understand. classical because music with vocals distracts me.

[quote=PorkSquad]You take crazed before you do hw, do you end up through the roof by the time your done studying?[/quote]

LOL nah. Right now my tolerance for craze is at about 1 2/3 to 1 3/4 scoop when i workout and i use about 3/4 to 1 scoop when i study so its not like im all jittery and bouncing off the walls. So i basically just lower the dosage when i study and it just gives me a real good amount of focus and concentration. Even in the FAQ's on the craze website people ask if they can use it for studying lol. I suggest you try it out for yourself if you got some craze.

Amphetamine

I sit on my desk and eat while listening to music :B It always seems to motivate me to study.

I usually leave my phone behind, or turn it off. I ditch my laptop and carry around books I need to study from.. then I go to the nearest library and just study.

I almost never study. A tip for you though, never drink coffee right before an exam. That thing will get you all jittery. Usually it's very unnoticeable but in a testing environment where you sit in a chair for hours and everything is quiet it hits like a truck. Shouldn't have had all that coffee right before my AP Calc exam

I usually study on my couch while watching cnn lmao

ask your mom to lock yourself in a small 8x8 room with nothing but your papers that you need to study.

Have never studied for anything in my life.

LOL this just might be the answer

i picture myself fat and lonely without a hot ass husband because i didn't get my education

I spread it out over the entirety of the quarter. For the most part, I don't end up with a lot to study when exams roll around, since I'm rather comfortable with the material already.

I go to a study area away from my computer. My apartment has a lounge with free food since I live in a college town and all.
I eat food during my breaks.
