how many hours do you spend on studying each day?

I'm interested to know that how long do u study each day usually?
for example, I spend one hour to finish the homework and two hours for studying each day.
I know this is not enough to get a good result so that's why I'm trying to put in more effort.  :-\

It's not so much the duration that is important but rather what you do and accomplish in that time.

what LovePhysics said is so true, i know people who only did 2 hours a night in yr 12 but still got 99.7 + results, in the 2 hrs they did though they had no distractions they turned their phone, tv Facebook all off and focused 100%, you dont have to do hours on end if you use your time wisely,

Yes! I should start giving myself targets everyday and try to achieve it. :)

Have weekly and daily goals. Once you complete your daily and weekly goals - you have the rest of the time off for yourself; this is good because it motivates you to finish the work on time, put in more effort, and reduces procrastination.

Hours of studied is probably one of the biggest myths of VCE. If you have enough concentration an hour worth of concentrated study is better then 8 hours of pseudo study.

1-2 hours max. Cram massively in the days before SACs but usually I spend most of the time after school procrastinating ): Have changed that in the past week though, been doing a lot of exam prep (:

I usually only study when there's a SAC coming up (like the night before :P) or when we have set homework. Will definitely do more as exam time approaches though.

Varies, when I study at the uni about 6 hours. If i'm at home maybe 4 hours. However, uni obviously has a different workload to school- having to complete assignments, study for pracs etc.

Depends what week you ask me. Sometimes I study zero hours per week. Sometimes I even feel like via watching the news I get dumber, and as a result I am studying negative hours. Sometimes I study like 2-3 hours. And sometimes, just sometimes, I eat so much ice-cream that I find enlightenment, only to lose it once I watch the news again.
✌️just do what makes you happy ✌️

I reckon those who count the number of hours they're studying are too busy counting those hours... instead of studying  ;)

Whoah - amazing! I could never squeeze that much study  time into my schedule, but I guess I'll have to reconsider when I'm in year 12 :)

Currently, I'm doing about 4 hours a night (5-6 if I have a SAC) and 6 hours on Saturday and Sunday.
