Try again. After 30 minutes of unfocused focusing, you might find that focus. And then once you get into it, you want to finish. Sometimes when I'm studying I find that I am talking to myself, making gestures with my hands and stuff. Um, okay so calf in Spanish is pantorilla or something like that. I have a funny way of remembering things, but it works. To remember this word I thought of a gorilla wearing pants[jeans], and the pants are covering his calves. Just find what works for you.

Study in a quiet, well lit room that is away from distractions such as the tv, telephone, computer, etc. If you need some kind of background noise you can listen to music but at a decent level so that you can hear it but it's not overpowering. Take a five minute break for every 30-45 minutes of study you do.

I wish I had found that answer when I was in school! I was diagnosed ADHD at 25. Music is what always worked for me. Put the headphones on and keep VISUAL distraction to a minimum.
Also, learn to use lists. This gives you a concrete routine to adapt to.

Are you getting enough sleep? How are your eating and exercise habits? Focus on the subject and ask questions. Think about what you hearing in class.

1. Turn the TV off
2. Put on classical music, like BACH, has been shown to improve brain function
3. If you can't stand BACH, then listen to favorite quiet music, no head pounding stuff
4. study for 15 mins then STOP for 5mins
