You would know.
Night and day, I study in my room, lighting dimmed, curled in a corner drooling over 4U math formulas.

Of course I'd know, fool

i personally enjoy night time study, it's peaceful and there is no daylight to distract me from looking out my window. :3 i also enjoy staying up late and looking like trash in the morning (no sarcasm) haha.

lol. i dunno why (maybe my house walls are crappy), but at night we can always hear glass bottles being smashed, really loud music, people laughing/talking, the neighbour's really loud sound system, etc, etc....

oh yeah, and my family's all deaf, so they watch TV really loudly.

so, i find morning is much more peacful coz there's actually no sounds at all. :)

Re: 回覆: Re: Early morning Vs. Late night Studying...

studying through the night is even more insane. lol. If you're not prepared. then my recommendation would be to cram the night before until 11 or 12, then wake up at 6 and do another hour of recalling everything you crammed.

I don't mind either method as long as I'm awake and fresh. One thing I can't do is studying when I'm really sleepy. I remember my highschool days when I get so damn sleepy after I come home from school that my head literally falls on the textbook when I'm reading it.

I don't get that anymore since I'm at uni and I can study whenever I want.


But I would support studying in the morning and early at night, never late at night. It just goes against our nature. Humans just aren't supposed to be night living beings.

I find that staying up late at night to study is considerably better and has its advantages over waking up early. This is because when you wake up at, say 5am to study, you limit yourself to 2 hrs of cramming to 7am. However, if you start studying from around 11pm, you have the whole night ahead of you to absorb as much info as possible, and you may even find areas that you need to revise on at the last minute. You dont have to rush and think about time because there's up to a full 8 hrs if you need it.

Of course, staying up the whole night is overkill, but staying up that extra hour to revise the last few points is always good. I usually stay up to 3-4am the night before an exam. The worst thing that can happen to you before an exam is that you know that you are not fully prepared for it. Certainly there are other reasons why I choose to stay up late but this is by far the most prominent. From this, staying up to study is clearly superior.

For me, due to the fact I failed to make ANY notes or study prior to my trials, I am in a state where (for the past 10 days) where I study from around 9:00PM till 2:00AM, sleep, wake up at 6:30AM, study till 8:30AM, do my exam, waste the entire afternoon, then repeat.

IDK, for the past 6 or so years I have kind of acustomed my body to this sort of resigme, Since 1:00AM really is my day to day bed time.

Its just the getting up early which kills you. I say ride the 4 hour sleep train.

No, you just go on with it. When you see it's starting to get light outside, that's when you're fucked.

i go to bed reasonably early to study in the morning so i'm always hungry. i don't make much noise actually studying but i make noise when getting breakfast. i like to cook a nice breakfast with the whole toast, fried eggs and stuff for real brain food and that's where the noise comes from.
YUMM
lucky you. I wish I had time on a study morning to make such a hearty breakfast. :( Even making Nutri-grain is proving to be too much of a hassle.. :p

Well, unlike yourself, I can stay up to as late as I want without my droziness becoming an serious impediment to my study, and no I do not look at the clock while studying. Looking at the clock is the last thing I want to do when I'm struggling to revise an entire subject for an exam in the followng morning. For me, it's only after when I wake up after 2 hrs of sleep do I feel really drowsy, so I can't really study in the mornings anyway.

are you a genius? if not, be prepared to fail...

but then again, you study four hours a night that should be plenty to get a decent mark if you don't daydream within those 4 hours.
