My exams starting next weak. I am expected to cover all eight subjects within a weak. SO I must do overtime from noe. But I find it hard to wake until 1 am. But rising back at 6am is not a hard task. I have tried caffeine, it helps me a little. And it also helps me to remember things more. I have also read articles about the same that caffeine increases memory. But are theier more clever ways to keep you awake until it's realy late. I neeed another one hour more.

That is crazy, it's also scare me. Studying 8 subjects within a week. Thanks God I am not in school anymore. I remember when I used to study every single day before the final exams. It's better you study little by little every days than all in once. Your brain will retain more when you take it easy. Here is my advice, read loud or write note when you study. It might be easier for the brain to memory what you have learned. It works for me.

Haha it reminded me of board exams when 8 subjects to study in two weeks but 4 subjects every weekend. And dont forget it wasnt just chapters, it was two sets of books for one subject, could be even more. My trick to stay awake during the evenings is to find the perfect place to study. If you study near your bed it lets you see it and think of sleep. If you study in somewhere too comfortable, it will let you be comfortable too easily too. Which would lead to you feeling drowsy. What i did is go away from room and studied in our dining room lol That way i was far from comfy to sleep and away from csuhions or pillows and stuff.

You should take proper rest say 8 hours sleep and sleep at 8 p.m. get up at 4 a.m. and study till 8 a.m. What you study in wee hours will get stright into your head, instead of studying late night. If you forego sleep, it will have effect on your health.

Yeah, 8 subjects in a week is really a lot! I used to drink coffee to make me awake when I was still studying. But sometimes, coffee doesn't help too. I'd try some sourish food, or take a walk, do something to keep me awake. Sometimes, I even went and did some housework until I was awake, then continued to study. Or chat with a friend for awhile. Remember to take care of your health too.
