Question

Yeah, like I need to study, but I'm easily distracted, any help?

Answer 1

i was told to read what i need to know then put it under my pillow and when u wake u should know it it work for my little sister

Answer 2

dude i had the same problem when doing my withdrawals a month ago! here's some of the advice I got:

organize your time - as in make extra time to study and STICK to your time table.

take a 10 minute break every 1/2 an hour, atleast every 40 mins.

get your notes together, and colour code them if needed. you could also summarise notes, and write them on little cards, which u can carry around in your pocket. then, even when u go out anywhere and if u hav nothing to do (eg: while travelling, or in a waiting area) u could go through the cards.
thats a little trick that really helped

don't try staying up late at night to study, coz that never works;
wake up and study early coz thats when the mind is most fresh

and each time u sit down to study, make sure your mind is first relaxed......close your eyes and take a deep breath if you arent.

don't EVER cram at the last minute, like before exams - use those few minutes to relax.

good luck!

Tips for Successful Studying
Relax before tests, and get into a calm state of mind. Anxiety shuts down the cerebral cortex, and locks you into the flight-fright mode of your limbic system. You don't think well in a state of panic, and you don't remember well, either.

Get enough rest, so your mind is clear.

Feed your brain before a test. Make sure you are getting sufficient choline and the other B-vitamins, phosphorus, essential fatty acids, good quality proteins and carbohydrates that are easily digestible.

Study regularly throughout the week, not just at the last minute. Cramming is not a successful strategy to do well on a test.

Put emotional problems out of your mind when you are in class, while studying and while test taking. Schedule time to think about your problems and work them out—just don't do this during your learning time.

Have a regular, quiet place to study. Organize your study materials.

Study with a group to go over the key concepts, and to quiz one another.

Protect your study time. Don't allow others to distract you.

Don't study with music, TV, or other noise in the background. It makes it harder to concentrate on your study material—and it may actively contaminate what you are trying to learn with extraneous, unrelated information.

Set goals for each study session. Review what you have learned before retiring.

Determine when is your best time to study. Try to study at those times if possible.

Make study and learning a top priority. Say no to demands that take you away from studying.

Answer 4

study alone and maybe in a quiet environment like the library. i get distracted easily so i can never work with friends unless it is for a project and i study in the library until it closes or when i am done with homework so i don't get distracted at home with tv or all my dvds. it really helps and you will be amazed in how much work you can get done.

good luck.
