Number of subjects studied per night.

Hey guys, just a general query.

How many subjects do people study per night? and would you study completely DIFFERENT subjects one after the other?
would studying Legal and Psych/PE one after the other have adverse effects?

thanks heaps!

thanks mate, yea I'm just worried that Legal and Psych/PE studied one after another might be bad considering the study techniques employed are very similar.

I study around 3 per night (~30 to 45 minutes each). In that time slot per exercise: usually get a spesh exercise done OR 2 methods exercises OR half of a physics chapter review OR half of a chem review OR random amounts of english...

As you will learn in Psych studying 2 very similar subjects (Bio/Psych) is very bad

If you do a humanities make sure you do a math/science after.

I just study Psych...wow I'm going to fail my 1/2s ::) :P

I just study what I am interested in at the time- like last night I spent about 3 hours delving into International politics, but the night before I did heaps of economics because i was interested in it at the time and last weekend i seriously spent about 10-12 hours studying Maestro but did absolutely nothing else. It means that I don't have a routine at all, but it seems to work quite well for me.

Also, the thing about not studying subjects that are related isn't all that relevant to humanites subjects, I use stuff I learn in economics and legal all the time in InterStuds and vice versa.

I study 2-3 subjects a night, as for my other two subjects, I try and study them during the day or during my frees.

I probably study 3 subjects a night? I tend to study in short bursts; 20-30 minutes per subject in blocks. Hence, I tend to get through most of my subjects bar Latin. Latin is "waayy to hard to study by yourself" (translating passages) according to my teacher, for the text we're doing. >.> Ohh, and I agree that it helps to change from one subject to another that is completely different (i.e. English to Chemistry).

Usually 1 or 2 subjects a night.

I find it more productive doing a lot from one subject rather than tiny bits from many.
