    Default How do you study?

    I just sit and read until I start falling asleep. Then I force myself to wake up and continue reading. And I hopefully retain enough of the information to be able to understand and reproduce it later.

    Burn the books to ashes and mix it with water. Drink it all up at you are fine to go.

    Sleep on textbooks (or SparkNotes).

    Badly.

    Actually, I'm not too bad, as long as I can apply what I'm studying. Like maths, I can apply what I'm learning to solving problems in the textbook. But I have to memorise, say, a paragraph of text, then I'm not so good...

    I like to pace back and forth when I study. It must be annoying to my family members on the first floor.

    Maybe with a bit of music in the backround, and no-one around to disturb me, i get distracted easily, same applies for artwork.

    I don't ^__^

    If I do, I look at a page, and Im a visual person, so I remember images etc, and theres always something playing in the backround. Usually its music, or the TV. I don't care if its a show I dislike, but just SOMETHING.

    Its very rare for me to revise, I usually revise a few nights before a test, atleast thats what I did for my SATs. My results didn't turn out that badly.

    I can only study/read when there's complete silence. I can't concentrate when there's music in the background or something similar.

    When I'm writing essays and such there has to be music in the background, though. ...I guess I'm just weird like that? o_O

    Psh, who studies? I ace all of my tests without as much as a second glance at the material we covered. Perhaps that's just because I pay attention in class.

    Complete opposite. Silence drives me crazy though when I get fustrated, I need it.

    I have terrible study habits though. I do not study enough and I slack off too much. Sadly, I realize this but do nothing about it. Go figure...
