All your life. Learning is the greatest pleasure life offers. Never have I seen a situation where happiness resulted from ignorance.

can u tell me what faculty or field are u studying , i may be able to guide u exactly then.\n\nWell for the time being i say is \n1) prepare a timetable for urself like what time u work , study, go out , etc. \n2)  then try to fix the timings for ur subjects of study in those timings.\n3) never take up one subject only , what i suggest is take two or three subjects at a time , i mean that for eg subjects A, B  AND C. so divide the timings as daily i ll do 2 hrs for subject A , 3hrs for subject B as it is quiet vast and 1 hr for subject C.\n4) prepare a schedule of the course u want to finish every week on sundays , and every saturday night check how much of the target u have achieved ,\n5) give some good amount of time for sleep daily atleast 6 hrs.\n6) give atleast 2 hrs daily for leisure activities like playing, tv, going out, etc.\n7) MOST IMPORTANT "BE FOCUSSED ON YOUR GOAL "\n       WELL THESE ARE SOME TIPS,\n       ALL THE BEST, TAKE CARE , BYE

Study until you feel you know the information. Some nights you might study 2 hours but others a half an hour. It all depends on what you need to know and how well you know it.

Take a short break. Walk in the garden. Take a few deep breaths and you will be ready to study more. God luck with studying. It is not that bad!

If you believe the studies - your brain cannot remain focused for longer than 40 minutes at a time, needing a serious change in pace already after 20 minutes. So- take a break every 40 minutes and change your approach. Switch between reading for 20 minutes to memorizing, to creating little rhymes that help you memorize, to writing, etc. Change your approach every 20 minutes. Change your subject every 40 minutes

best way to do it for me, have to actually set time aside for studying, like 3 hours.  now, the magic is not to studying for 3 hours at a time.  but taking a 15 min break for every 30 mins of solid studying.  now in the 30 mins, you have to be studying, not getting ready to study, not getting reference for studying, not learning how to study, but studying, on the 15 min break, same thing as above, nothing to do  with studying at all, nothing. dont' think about it til the 15 min is over.  that way you can guarantee yourself 30 mins of super concentration with the reward of 15 mins of break.

I wouldn't recommend it. Try studying at least 4 or 5 nights in advance, you don't have to study a lot, but more like the first night review, second night, review, third night look over stuff your not so sure about, ask questions, fourth night review everything, or flash cards, and the fifth night study at least 2 hours, but don't over due it, cuz you might stress yourself out way too much. If you don't like structured studying, try to glance it over a couple of weeks in advance, and everyday look over it for like 5 minutes, and than the night before the final go over everything. Hope that helps!

Actually, it depends on the child. But, the general rule of thumb is 8-10 hours. Most school age children need a good night's rest to do well in academics.

Study in increments.  Spend 10 minutes, then take a break for a minute, then spend another 10 minutes, and so on.  Just like repetitions at the gym, study in "sets" and you will be more successful.  I also drink a soda (Coke or Pepsi) 20 minutes before a test.  For whatever reason, I remember more, after the soda.  Get plenty of sleep too.  You will not learn if you are tired!  You will spend more time thinking about sleep, rather than your studies!  Also, if you are laying in bed, unable to sleep, get up and study for another 10 minutes.

Study 2 hours at a time. Don't cram all at once. Spread your education goals out so you have a reasonable timeframe to complete each task without undue pressure.

Take detailed notes, outline sections. Read through chapters and answer questions in textbooks. Complete any chapter review questions and have others quiz you. Study around 5-15 minutes each day, and don't cram before a big test. Feel free to take breaks when you feel tired, hungry, etc., but stay on task.

I usually start studying for tests about 4 or 5 days in advance.  Take 1 or 2 hours each day before the test and go over 1 chapter per hour.  I usually get a notebook and jot down important things I see in the chapter.  Then I read the chapter summaries several times.  I then go back through my notes and go over them several times.  Then I take a 20-30 minute break.  Humans can only pay attention for about 45-50 minutes at a time.  Be sure not to study non stop, or you won't absorb material.  Take breaks.

The golden rule for study is read, review, recall. This you must begin to do from the moment the topics and theories are introduced. Go beyond class notes and buttress these with research clarifying the arguments that surround the topic. It is better to have a thorough understanding and mastery of the subject than cramming to pass a one time exam. You MUST rest i.e. sleep well. Rest your body, mind and spirit. Let go of every anxiety. Take some warm drink (hot cocoa) before going to bed. Get into discussions with your classmates. Develop personal styles of recall. Use associations.Usually you are required to study for 3 hours for every credit unit per week. So do not wait till the exam is so close. In fact that way you can not fail any surprise test. Nothing can replace hard work. The more you study the more you increase your attention span. Sit down, do not answer the phone, do not go to the fridge, concentrate. Choose a spot where you will not be disturbed and if it works for you play your favorite music as background. Good luck.

Everyone has his/her own best period of studying - so while some may study better at night time, some may be more effective in the afternoon. The number of hours that you have to study in order to get the full marks in all courses depends on the amount of information you have to assimilate and on your own rhythm of studying.\n\nAnyway...here are a few tips for studying effectively:\n\nSet yourself reasonable goals and stick to them. (Don't try to set yourself higher goals than you can manage - the disappointment caused by the failure in not achieving them may make you far less enthusiastic about your studying. You can set higher goals, but do this gradually, after you have managed to get in the habit of accomplishing the simple ones).\n\nStudy in short frequent sessions (it is said that the ideal "formula" for this is: 50 minutes of studying, followed by a 10 minute break).\n\nIt's also very important to end your studying with a revision of what you have learned during the day - this will cement the new information into your brain.\n\nAnd I do advise you to get a good night's sleep - during the night your brain will work on the information you assimilated during the day, thus contributing to the process of learning (did you know that you use your brain more during your sleep than when watching tv?).\n\nSome very useful information about this on the websites below:

I think there would be no need to study late nights if you dont accumulate your portions throughout the year and just 2-3 hours a day would do.But if there is no option...the best way to remain awake at night is to get some sleep in the afternoons.
