Title: Wake up!! Help!!
Post by: B-17 on January 10, 2012, 11:37:01 PM
I need something to keep me awake... I'm going all night tonight. 4 summatives to finish for next Monday. ice water is helping (to drink) but I'm not much for coffee/energy drinks.

Anyone do anything special to keep themselves awake when they need it?

Help!!

Sleep usually helps me stay awake.

I didnt like coffee at first either. Then I started drinking it black because I wanted to be different from everyone else. It tastes good to me now.

I had a study trick that I used in college.

At the beginning of the semester, I assigned every subject its own music.  Usually a single CD, 60 -70 minutes of music.  Whenever I was studying that subject I would listen to the assigned music.  All semester long.  I would use headphones and play the music fairly loudly.

It had to effects.  First, it helped to keep me alert while studying...  But even more importantly, I would listen to the same music for an hour or so before taking an exam.

You would be amazed how you can use music to enhance recall.

The downside is, once the semester is over you might as well just throw the CD away...  You won't ever want to listen to it again.
