My retarded memorize an essay word for word approach isn't going to suffice for the exam...
Ahh, that sucks. We don't get the prompt before the essay so i'm used to it.

Just got told by school that are expected to study 7-8 hours per day with a day off per week.
Wow, that's wayy too intense. Our school says 2-5 hrs per day and take regular breaks. It's all about balance :)

About 12 hours/day - I hope I don't burn out.

3am - Wake up to a nutritious breakfast
4-12 - Study (Taking regular breaks)
12-2 - Lunch/Break
2-6   - Study (Taking regular breaks)
Sleep at 9pm << I'm relying on "Every hour of sleep before midnight is worth 2 hours after".

Let's see how it goes. =]

if ur gonna sleep at 9 then ull still get 6 hours. I dont think that rule of every hour of sleep before midnight is worth 2 hours if they are in the same sleep.

By this I mean if you take an afternoon nap for 1 hour, it would be worth 2 hours, so long that you wake up after that nap and work then go back to sleep. Because your biological clock doesnt know when "midnight" is if ur waking up at 3am.

I need a filter that prevents me from visiting any sites that aren't chemistry, biology, maths or english related. :(

It's so hard sitting in front of a computer and not wasting time...

I have it set to block facebook and somethingawful, it increases my productivity massively.

thanks I just installed it, goodbye facebook...

it's actually worse to take a short nap then return to studying.
