Studying

My study habits..I also study only whenever there is a test coming .. ...I don't really take a long time to study because ti makes me sleepy- especially when I'm studying on my bed or a chair- I just doze off.. Then when the test comes, I get a low but passing score...

One thing that helped me very much is that... STUDY IN THE KITCHEN. The kitchen is like perfect...well if it just had a better table and chair. At least in my house the kitchen has zero/zip/no distractions, of course unless your hobby is to cook or something. Good luck, concentration is also a big key :)

I'm much like you. Except after a while, I realized I was just wasting my time and quite studying the traditional way. Instead, I've started to focus a lot more on paying attention in class to pick up as much as possible. And if I do really need to study for something, I get with a friend to do it. That way, we both benefit, becuase we can keep each other on task and on track. Also, if you must be by yourself, take breaks often. You'll probably be much more likely to focus consistently if you know you only have to do it for 15 minutes and then get a 3 minute break. Good luck with your studies!
