You need to take a break, you can't learn if you're exhausted.\n\nGive yourself a couple of days completely off!\n\nYou'll return refreshed and ready for the last short dash to the finishing line. And remember - after 17 months of hard graft - it IS nearly over!\n\nAll the very best of luck to you.

Studying is hard for even those of us that like to study.  If its a class you are bored with, then try this.  Make yourself study, with the promise of a "personal reward"  Make sure the tv and stereo is off so you can concentrate.  Set your self a time limit, cramming just doesnt work.  Set a two hour deadline, and if you are still not comfortable with the results, set it aside for a bit, and go back to it.  Once you have taken the test, and passed, as we all know you will, reward yourself with something you dont do often but enjoy.

Get yourself in a comfortable position with good lighting. Eat chocolate before or during your study session (helps memory, keeps you awake, boosts your mood), avoid carbs at least an hour before (makes you feel sleepy). If you need one final boost of energy before going to sleep, eat something sweet like gummi bears. You'll get sugar shock after the high.\n\nIf you're planning to stay awake the entire night, drink cold (as in ice cold) coffee. Hot coffee makes you groggy. You won't feel sleepy, but you won't be fully alert either. Cold energy drinks help, too.\n\nThe coffee should be brewed (just cool it down after), not instant, so you don't start shaking.\n\nIf you want to get some sleep, but you have too much to study, stay away from coffee and try taking "power naps" (naps that are only a few seconds long) after every topic, or even after every page. They keep you energized.\n\nI'm entering my 3rd year, and it always works for me. But each of us have our own styles. Find what works best for you.

Go to somethig like drweil.com and look at breathing exercises.  They will REALLY help you if you let them.\n\nThen, spend this weekend studying.  I suppose that's obvious, but knowing that you're as prepared as possible will take a load off your shoulders.\n\nGet lots of sleep and eat a good protein-based breakfast on the mornings of your exams.  This will help prevent sugar-crashes that you can get just eating something like cereal for breakfast.  A little caffeine throughout the day can help you stay awake and feel sharper.\n\nGood Luck with finals!

You more than likely studied too long and became tired. When you're tired it's time to take a break because your mind will no longer absorb what you are studying.\n Research has shown that learning efficiency is much higher when a topic is studied in short blocks everyday, rather than long intense blocks occasionally. This is why cramming for tests is self-defeating.

*well you should have your sched on how you going to manage your studies and all that crap...\n*well there was a study that eating foods rich in omega 3 gives you more concentration on your study...\n*sleep early so that you could easily retain what you have studied...\n*before sleeping take a cold shower... it really helps\n*oh yeah no phone, no net, no tv will be a help on your study, but i think few people can do this habit\n*most of the people say that it really helps that listening on their fav music give them more concentration on study, but actually it doesnt... in fact it will burden their brain more\n*try to study in front of a wall where you will not see anything but your WALL...

Cant concentrate on studies. And by the time you want to study, you will be very tired. All you think is about the pay and you wont have interest in studies.

Get a good sleep/rest. Exercise and eat good. Know you own bodies peak alertness time of the day, and lowest/lagging time of the day. A good location in the house or at a library( somewhere that you can avoid distractions). Teaching tapes of a subject are good, even when you fall asleep listening to them. I would not suggest eating a big meal before study. I would not suggest studying while laying in bed or having inadequate lighting in your chosen space to study. After reading material for study purposes, go over your notes every day, as if you were summarizing it, to keep it fresh in your mind. \n  If it is a subject that you can apply to your life, or make a real case scenario out of it, then by all means do so. I would not try to experiment with any chemicals to "boost" concentration. That would be the start of a downhill tragedy. Group study is helpful for some if you have serious people in the study ( I would not recommend a boyfriend or girlfriend).No distractions!

Sleep 8 hours\nStudy every day.\nAvoid Mental Exhaustion. Take short breaks often when studying. Before a test, have a rested mind. When you take a study break, and just before you go to sleep at night, don't think about academics. Relax and unwind, mentally and physically. Otherwise, your break won't refresh you and you'll find yourself lying awake at night. It's more important than ever to take care of yourself before an exam! Eat well, sleep, and get enough exercise.\n\nDecide what to study (reasonable task) and how long or how many (chapters, pages, problems, etc.). Set and stick to deadlines. \n\nDo difficult tasks first. For procrastination, start off with an easy, interesting aspect of the project. \n\nHave special places to study. Take into consideration lighting, temperature, and availability of materials. \n\nStudy 50 minutes, and then take a 10 minute break. Stretch, relax, have an energy snack. \n\nAllow longer, "massed" time periods for organizing relationships and concepts, outlining, and writing papers. Use shorter, "spaced" time intervals for rote memorization, review, and self-testing. Use odd moments for recall/review. \n\nIf you get tired or bored, switch task/activity, subject, or environment. Stop studying when you are no longer being productive. \n\nDo rote memory tasks and review, especially details, just before you fall asleep. \n\nStudy with a friend. Quiz each other, compare notes and predicted test questions.

Hi Adi\nNever say that you are distracted by others.You are distracted by your own mind.You must control your mind & direct it so as to help to your study. After settled the mind do following:\nwork hard in the day time,so, you will soon be tired.Then go to sleep as early as possible(at around 6.30-7.00pm).Then getup early morning(at around 2.30-3.00 am).Study in the morning with fresh mind.Even you study for 2-3 hours,that will be good enough.

just yesterday, i sat for studies at 7:00pm and i got so absorbed that i sat till 12:15am. if u cant sit for longer than 45 min try listening to some music when u do your maths or some writing work. due to that you dont get bored studying as u have songs which u can listen. DOnT TRY THAT WHILE LEANING SOMETHING.

Stay online, so that in between breaks you can surf the net, or fix a quiz (pretty exciting stuff for me), drink lots of energy drinks and coffee, turn on the television while you study, sit on an uncomfortable chair, like a hard one, so that it's not comfy enough to snooze on.\nKeep some strong smelling lemon or citrus nearby to sniff on. Studies show they help to keep you feeling 'refreshed'.

perhaps refreshen your study room, brighten it up with bright paint, clear out the debris, open the windows, let in fresh air, take a quick shower, set yourself a break time before you get stressed, have a buddy to call you for 'keeping on track'...reward yourself, listen to positive motivation tapes in free time, take up a a new sport for boosting energy,...and talk things out with a counsellor perhaps...might be something there troubling you, choose uplifting music in the background and even splash some Bach flower remedies and aromas around, to clear the head and to revitalize you.  don't get down about things, you'r doing a great job....and hey!! its okay to work with a buddy too....find more buddies and have a different one each night...that makes each one, one a week, and is not tying them down monotonously.

the easy answer is, plan ahead and don't leave all your studying to the last minute :-)\n\nIf you don't have other classes to work around, here is what I would suggest:\n\nT=9:00      Wake up, get ready for the day\nT=9:30    Grab breakfast to eat while you study\nT=9:45    Study for an hour\nT=10:45   Get up, stretch, use the bathroom\nT=11:00   Study for another hour\nT=12:00   Check email, go chat with friends, and otherwise take a break.  Get some lunch.\nT=12:30   Go to a different place to study.  Try the library, or a commons room.\nT=12:45   Study a new subject for two hours (if you have more than one to work on).\nT=2:45   Get up and find somewhere new to study you haven't been to yet today.  Grab a snack on the way.\nT=3:00   Study another two hours\nT=5:00   Break!  Spend an hour or two with friends, playing a game, or basically de-stressing\nT=6:00   Eat dinner, start gearing up to study again\nT=6:45   Make your way back to somewhere comfortable to study\nT=7:00  Settle in and study as long as you can stand\nT=10:00ish Get up, check email, move around, head back to your room if you're not there already\nT=10:30ish Bring your most boring study material to bed with you.  Read it until you fall asleep.  You'll either get lots read (good) or get plenty of sleep (also good) :-)\n\nThis assumes you have a full day, but this gives you a good 11+ hours of studying, and still time to eat, talk with your friends, and generally not go crazy.  It also gives you at least 9 hours of sleep at night, which will really help!\n\nStudying in multiple places throughout the day helps keep you from getting bored (and sleepy) while you work.  Also, if always study the same subjects in the same rooms, it really helps your brain absorb the information faster (strange, but true!).  If your test involves remembering a bunch of facts (like who painted each of these pictures, when, what techniques did they use, etc), study each thing (painting, in this case) in a different room.  Then when you get to the test you can see a painting and remember "Oh, I read that one while sitting in the stairwell.  That means it was painted in X year by so-and-so."  It helps you keep the information from getting all mixed up in your head!
