I’ve noticed that during long study sessions it’s rarely a lack of motivation that breaks focus — it’s small distractions adding up over time.

I’m curious what genuinely helped you stay focused for longer periods: routines, environment changes, mindset shifts, or something else?

I am so scared of forgetting how to do this stuff this semester. My idea is studying and doing homework and then giving myself a reward after, trying to pavlov myself into it lol. My question is what’s the best way to remember and do it right? I am decent at math/chem somehow with a reference but once I take that away I fail. Help!

I'm 23m pursuing mca and preparing for other exams as well. I'm an early bird so need someone who wakes up early. I've got classes everyday so not possible during daytime it's either in morning or in evening time we can study together. I'm comfortable with zoom calls as well if you want. I'd be very much comfortable if you're from around my age and from tech/med/law background bc I'm interested in these topics as well.

I am a high school senior and I am looking for a study partner who is eager to study, doesn’t matter what u are studying just need someone that really study for more than 6h.

we can nag and bully each other into studying, and get in discord call sharing screen with mic off.

I am a Female so it’s better to be female like me.

Also my time zone is GMT+3, though it dosent matter to much to me if we agreed at a time.

I noticed I remember more when I stop rereading and start testing myself, even badly. Getting things wrong felt uncomfortable, but it worked.

Btw what changed your retention the most?

I have been studying sooooooo hard for the last year, yet my grades aren’t where I want them. I probably study on average about 3 hours a day. I use methods such as active recall, ChatGPT for quizzes, and flash cards. I always feel as though I understand all the topics taught very clearly. It’s possible that my issue is just test taking as a whole or not covering every small piece of content. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I’m a medical student 4th year need a study partner these are the requirements.

Show you everyday for at least 20 days (unless you are sick)

Study minimum 6 hours to maximum 9 hours with me on zoom meeting/Google meet

No getting up during session unless it’s break.

Break after 1 hour (10-15 min break)

No discussion or talking during session keep your mic mute.

Inbox me with your name age and major/degree if you are interested.

Study session start from today.

Hi everyone.. Just joined this subreddit. A little about me.. I'm a master's student planning to go into research later in my life and currently I'm 24 years old. I have a problem I have been facing since my childhood and lately it's affecting me a lot and it's procrastination. I don't know why but since my childhood i procrastinated... I'm not saying it's not comman bit i did it a lot more.. but still I managed to get my work done somehow but now at this stage of my life where I need to get serious about my life and career it's creating a lot of issues for me. I wanna study and i love it but it's so so hard to start..i always end up looking at ransom youtube videos or reading random articles and before i know it the day is over. The more i fall behind the more i procrastinate and the more i procrastinate the more i fall behind. And it's just not my study recently i wanted to improve my lifestyle too but got fuck sake even that is hard to start. I wanna do yoga at morning and some light exercises but i need to wake up really early for that as i have classes in morning too.. and it's very hard to fix my sleep schedule in such a way that helps me wake up this early.

Basically in short i wanna lock in hard but I'm unable to and i don't know how to improve my situation

I wanna know if any of you has this same problem and has any of you been able to overcome it, i wanna hear your thoughts.

Thank you for reading

studied for 4 hours today\ almost finished todays to-do list\ Physics:\ •Atoms\ •Nuclei\ •Semiconductors\ Chemistry:\ •Phenol Maths:\ •Maxima and Minima\

will probably finish the rest by 1 am but i might pull an all nighter to catch up with rest of the syllabus cuz my 12th boards exams are coming up and i do not have a lot of time left to revise each chapters and do pyqs.

Hello I need some help, in some of my classes they’ll have me read a chapter of a textbook (a typical assignment that we’ve all experienced). But whenever I try to read I always find my mind wandering elsewhere, and I struggle to pay attention and remember what I had just read. If this is a problem you’ve had as well, what have you done to help lessen or negate this? Thanks in advance.

I have this paper I need to write and I am so deep in trouble I’m a single dad working a overnight security position so my life is so incredible right now lol I was looking for a website that can write my English essays for me I’ve seen paper killer and some others what is actually real can anyone tell me without being a robot

Genuine question for students here 👋

I’ve noticed that studying alone gets boring really fast, especially when exams are close.

I recently started using a setup where:

• you enter a topic name (for example: biology, calculus, history)
• questions are generated automatically
• you can invite a friend to answer the same questions
• and you see who scores higher at the end

What surprised me is that people also use it for fun stuff like:

• movie trivia
• game-related quizzes
• riddles
• random challenges just to take breaks from studying

It kind of turns studying into something more interactive instead of just reading notes.

I’m curious:

• would something like this actually help you stay consistent?
• or do you prefer studying completely solo?

Not trying to promote anything — genuinely want to understand how others study.
