can you study while listening to music?

If i can listen to music during my studies depends on the easyness of the studies i have to do. IF i have to concentrate alot then i will in most cases not have any music.

Yes, surprisingly for me, I can concentrate more when I listen to certain kinds of music. And at other times, I just cannot concentrate on anything at all. I think it all boils down to what topics or subjects I'm studying. If it's like memorizing lines type, I can't listen to any music. If it's like Math, a strategy kind of question, whereby I just need to recall the formula or something, I can listen to most music and still being able to concentrate.

If there is no music on in the background, I can't concentrate on anything, because the smallest little noise will distract me.

Sometimes I can concentrate on my study even when the music is on, but very occasionally. More often, I prefer listen to music after study to relax. If I listen to music before study, I am afraid that I could hardly control myself to stop because I can listen for hours.

yes i think u can ..... sometimes only sometimes music help me concentrate in my studies .... and not just little help but great help ......

I don't listen to music but I think music will definitely distract me. I prefer a quiet environment to study in.

Depending on what I am studying I can listen to music. I have found it easier to concentrate while studying depending on the subject.

Hello dh1811 and welcome to mylot.com! By your current ratings I can see that you are fairly new to this site so welcome to mylot.com and I hope that you enjoy using this site. I am one of those people who can not study without listening to music. I feel like it keeps me focuses, I do not know why but it just does. Well once again welcome to mylot and until next time NakitaLikely3617 is out! Take care and be safe!

No not really. I need silence so that I can concentrate. I can learn something with a little bit of music on while its not that loud but its a lot easier for me to study while there's no noise.

I usually don't have any problems with listening to the music while studying, unless the music doesn't play too loud, so it won't catch much of my attention. Sometimes, when I need to be totally concentrated on a task, I can't listen to the music, because it distracts my attention a little bit.

Personally, I have never been able to study or work whilst listening to music. I find it too off-putting and distracting, and it decreases my level of productivity, so I usually just study and work in silence.

I listen music often while I study, cause it helps me relax too, most of time I listen rock. But I don't listen music if I need to study for some difficult test.

Well it's relaxing to listen to music but when i need to study i can't concentrate if i listening to music.Sometimes a concentrate on the music and not on the study or sometimes i find the music really annoying if a listening to music while i study.

For me it depends from time to time, and it also depends on what level of studies I need to do. I concentrate a lot both with music and without, so for me it dosen't matter. But since I love music so much I would prefer listening to it when I study :)

I can study while listening to music. Actually it make me more inspired to study. When I was in college I study at the end of the day, when everyone is in deep sleep. I want silence. By listening to songs and sometimes I sing along with it, I get inspired. Music leaves us memories. I do enjoy what I do while studying because of that. I can memorize the term easily and I do not get to be sleepy because I sing along with the songs playing. Some can’t concentrate their study when there is noise but me sometimes I can’t concentrate but I enjoy.

As I get older, I tend to get distracted more so if the sound is fierce and has a lot of bass and drums, that may throw me off and I might not concentrate well. However, if it's jazzy and new age like, instrumental piano or guitar, that might work better in aiding me to relax. I like to feel comfortable when I'm at home or typing so those music help me.

hi dh!like you,when i was still in college,i cannot study without music.i study late hours memorizing and digesting case studies.it helps me remember the things i read when i am already at the exam,i don't also know the reason behind it,but it helps me a lot.romantic music is my favorite to be on the background while i am studying.

well for me it depends on what type of music you are listening to.. I can studying when i listen to soft music... it calms my mind which will allow the things that i study to stick on my head easily... but sometimes when the things i study is so hard, then i concentrate more on studying without music.. because sometimes it divides my attention.. I keep on singing along with the music.. but then again, its nice to listen to music while studying... :-)

Like you said, it depends what kind of music is playing. Before during my college days, I study with music. Like you, I can retain all the things I've study if the music are on. I usually listen to classic music while studying.. anything soothing to my ears. Just like for instance music of Johann Pachelbel or Yiruma.

Personally, I can't! I try to because sometime I just can't handle the quiet but then I start singing along to the music or thinking of other things that the music reminds me of. I can handle background noise like a tv or people talking but I just can't listen to music! Which is a shame because if I didn't get distracted so easily I'm sure it would act as a great remembering tool!
