How do I focus on my studying?

Some place thats relaxing.

Go through everything (papers, books, etc.)

Have a highlighter, notepad, and snacks.

then, get really good sleep.

don’t cram all night

when u sleep it all sticks

Set a timer. Start with half an hour. Focus on studying for a full half hour-when then timer rings. Then take 15 minutes to have a break. Stretch, run up and down the stairs, get a glass of water. Avoid watching tv or something that could pull you away.

Do it again, setting the timer for 30 minutes. When that gets easier, up it to 45 minutes, then 1 hour.

Next, go over the material in the texts that is referenced in the lecture notes.

Finally, go over the assigned reading text.

This will refresh your memory on what took place in class than re-enforce it through the text and finally you review the reading you should have already done.

Professors usually lecture about what they think is important so make that a priority.
