Study tips...
 
Man exams are killing me...
Can someone please tell me how to revise for a test?
And can someone please teach me how to pull overnighters?
It'll be a great help.

Can't help you with study tips.

But as for all nighters. Go out and do some tweak. That'll keep you up a good day or 2.

Speed..

As for study.............read and find an interest for learning what your reading.

Plutonium 09-17-05 05:15 AM

Yeah...hope I'll get a passion to learn sooner or later. I'm too young and when people are young they hate school. Well, for many people anyway.

Don't take speed.. it's illegal and it ain't that safe. If you are set on taking drugs to study, it's probably safer to take Adderall or Ritalin, which are prescribed to people with ADHD. For people without ADHD, it causes them to be able to focus on a task for long periods of time.

If you are going to stay up all night, try coffee. If you don't already drink it daily and have built up a tolerance to caffeine, it should be easier to stay up.. I've tried caffeine powders, but I ended up getting headaches that made it even harder to study. Maybe it might work for you.

People remember things better in different ways.. Try making notes in point form with colors for headings and highliting main points or keywords. And also try doing mind maps and shit like that.

As for drugs, do what strobe said. But also try some fish oil capsules. They make you think more and keep on task because of the omega 3... it basically gets you in gear for exams so take them the morning your exam is on.

state dependent memory ...... its been researched and all that....

smoke a blunt b4 you start studyin...or b4 a lecture.. what ever you read/ hear will be stored.....

smoke a blunt b4 your test...... and everything you learned high will be recalled from where it was stored....


i did this when i was in high school and my first semester in collage... it works....

Ritalin is basically the same drug as speed.

Except speed will give a more direct effect to staying awake where as ritalin can make you drowsy.. They dont have Adderall here to my knowledge so I cant comment on that. But I know if you want to stay awake, put a bit of speed on the tip of a spoon and lick it.. Dont take too much, just enough to keep you going.

And dont use age as an excuse.. Every kid needs to leave the dumbass stage at some point, sooner is always better than later.

For those that are usin drugs as a way to pull all nighters, I dont think its right, what I suggest is what efecx said keep readin and readin till you get it memorized and lets say you have 3 weeks till youre exam:

Make a timetable that you are loyal to, keep at it, have sufficent breaks and relaxation periods, to determine how long to work look at youre sylabus per subject, divide into topics and study daily, then leave a few days to recover everything you have jus revised, and then have an EARLY NIGHT, be ready for the exam, be relaxed, be confident.....

adderall or ritalin. Designed for this exact purpose, but you gota fake to have ADD (which EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD "shows symptoms of") to get it. There's an herbal suppliment that does essentialyl the same thing though I can't remember the name. I'd know it if I heard it or were concerned enough to google for it.

I remembered a split second before sending this post. Ginkobiloba (sp?) is the one. Peace.

I just read the same thing over and over again.. then repeat it to myself a few times. Then, I move to the next point. Do the same thing, except after I repeat it, I repeat the point(s) I've already studied, so I won't have to go back and re read anything.

I don't know.. that's worked fine for me.. for 5 years.

I don't do drugs or any of that shit, and I've had to study massive amounts of shit in one night because I procrastinate. I just end up drinking like, 15 coke's when doing it.
