- ensure you have a 'lock-down' plan in the weeks leading to the exams e.g. deadbolt the bedroom door to prevent yourself from going out and people coming in or have a sign outside on your door with something like "LISTEN I AM TRYING TO GET A 99, IF YOU WANT ME TO BE A DOCTOR OR A LAWYER DONT TALK TO ME, DONT TOUCH THIS DOOR AND DONT TRY TO COMMUNICATE WITH ME" - it tells them you are serious about the 99
lol...
note to self; buy deadbolt.

Lol, no weekends? I would go mental if I never studied on the weekends. I guess it's just my innate nature to study on the weekends. Even if I am as sick as a dog, I would still study on the weekends at the State Library. I didn't want to contaminate any of the other students I'm competing against, though. ;)

Haha. I feel this study pattern for holidays works best for me for some reason, I need distinct "relax days". Then I work effectively throughout the week, and I give myself a break on the weekends so I can maintain my social life, and have a rest and stuff. I think I'd burn out if I didn't.
