What is your go-to study habit during finals season? O.T.C. 11.29.18

Seclusion

The best tactic is to find a quiet corner of the library, away from distractions, and watch YouTube videos in peace.

Wine and snacks

Plop down on the floor with your best friends, notes, wine and too many snacks. Every time you fly through a block of notes, reward yourself with wine and popcorn.

Procrastination

It’s hard for me to avoid.

— Lindsay

Classic brain power

When preparing to study, finding the perfect playlist to work along to is almost as important as the act of studying itself. You can’t go wrong with something by The Rolling Stones or composer John Williams.

Coffee crazed study sessions

Nothing gets you an A quicker than 6 cups of joe.

— Kyle

Break it up

Humans aren’t made to stare at a screen for hours on end. Break the workload down, check it off one at a time and break it up with snacks and/or exercise.

Ambient assistance

The right playlist can really make all the difference, and for me its a mixture of modern classical and ambient music for background noise. There are more than enough distractions elsewhere on the internet, so there’s no reason to let your music make things worse too.

Confidence in caffeine

I place all my hope and confidence in caffeine during stressful times.

— Elizabeth

Get ahead

Just get it done, start early and power through no point in creating more stress by putting it off until the end even if it’s more convenient. Thats why when I get a study guide for a test I immediately begin to study it so im not cramming the night before the exam.
