Use a pencil and out line whatever you think is important in the text, it will  keep you focus. In fact, this is what suggested for SAT read passages, which are known for being boring. Besides, this will help you when you have to answer questions or reread it later.\nDon't play upbeat music or music with lyrics (of course it doesn't count if it is a foreign language that you don't know).

LOL.....I've got the same problem.  I'm not sure how to stay focused.  One of my teachers suggested we take peppermint candies and suck on them.  The mintiness keeps you alert and awake.

Well what helped me when I was in college was I high-lighted the important parts of the text. That did wonders for me and I also took notes as well so I could do some cross refrencing between the two. \n\nAs far as reading, I encourage you do focus on it as much as you can. Be it everyday or everyother day, have it be apart of your schedule on a regular basis. That's important. GOOD LUCK TO YOU.\n\nI was the type were I could not stay at home and study, so I went to the local library and rented a study room for a few hours. It was helpful.

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!

A LITTLE EACH DAY INSTEAD OF CRAMMING THE NIGHT BEFORE.  TRY REVIEWING EACH TIME WHAT YOU READ THE DAY BEFORE TOO.  REPITITION HELPS.  ALSO, TRY WRITING IMPORTANT FACTS A COUPLE OF TIMES.  WRITING SEEMS TO KEEP INFORMATION IN YOUR HEAD LONGER.

A good start is to find what you're interested in. Not only topics that you know about- also include things you've always wanted to know about. Whenever you chance upon one of these things on the internet, read about it. For light reading, I also suggest the Bathroom Reader Series. Very light, and the topics are interesting. For heavy reading, try the online resource Wikibooks.\nRead up on news, magazines, etc. If that's too hard, try something on video or audio, little light things. \nRoutines are also good- how about checking up on a word of the day?

Try to focus on something healthy like jogging, studying, cooking, reading.  Keeping a journal also helps.

Lots of reading, not just books, but newspapers too.  Be sure to look up any words you don't know if you cannot derive the meaning from context.   Also I find crossword puzzles are a great way to build your vocabulary, because it has you thinking of the alternate meanings of words and phrases.

Different people find different tactics that help them.\n\nBased on the example you gave--not remembering what you read after you turn the page--you might try taking notes (in the margin or on a separate sheet) or outlining what you are reading.  Sometimes I have forced myself to write a one-sentence summary of every paragraph I read, to make sure I am finding the main idea of what the author is suggesting.\n\nThe real key is getting yourself to concentrate on what you are reading.  Find what works for you to keep you involved in the text.

No P_A_R_T_Y   \nWhen you study take breaks. \nShort ones, but still a break.\nRead over things more than once. \n\nI would sit under a tree study Drug therapy, then put the books down and just look at the birds and squirrels for a few minutes.  Then read over it again.\nanother few minutes later I would ask myself questions about it.\n\nCRAMMING DOESNOT WORK  TRUST ME!!!  IT GET EVERYTHING ALL JUMBLED IN YOUR HEAD AND YOU ARE WORSE OFF...

Yes try studying by doing an activity.  For example, instead of just studying the book or your notes, try to outhink your teacher and creat a test for yourself.   Make it the hardest test that you can!  Or, write an outline of the chapters and notes and try to blend them together.    \n\nJust the act of writing the material down again will help you learn it.  And it will relieve the boredom.  Good luck!
