I prefer to work in silence in a tidy, clean environment. And I can't work with people around, lol.
o yeah same here, i don't like people around me when doing maths haha
Yeah, especially for math. Cos if they talk to me, I lose focus and have to rethink about what I was doing and that makes me mad, rofl.

Yeah, if I muck around while working, it has to be something that has 'breaks' etc.

I listen to music and watch TV in the loungeroom. I have to kick everyone out though because people annoy me.

yeah i think music doesn't affect vce maths that much, like i remember when i was doing trial exams, i used to have playlists of how long the exam would take me, and id know how much time has passed after certain songs come up haha

but now i cant concentrate if i have music playing while doing nonvce maths
