Yes, its that time of year again, and Im stuck in the think of it. Its exam time. Students retreat to their rooms and study for those tests that will effect the rest of their lives.
MIne start on the 3rd of may, and end towards the end of may.
However, despite needing an absurdly high grade (IB grade of 36 with a 6 in HL Maths and Physics), I cannot motivate myself to study. I don't know why, but whenever I think about how important these exams are, I just get depressed, and not motivated.
Does anyone have any great motivational techniques or tips?

Get rid of ur phone, computer and other gagdets for some time. ;-) Sit down and study. Just think about the pleasure and free time afterwards. :-) Well, mathematics r giving me problems and the time has come for to get rid of this gagdets.

My mother used to say: spend a little time studying. After that you'll have a life time to spend for your own pleasure. She meant the last year of highschool. Now i'm almost done with the college. Today i had a quite hard exam. I had to prepare cuz i wanted to pass. Besides people get clever by learning something new. I may sound cheap, but it is just me. Your hard month will pass. That's the beauty of life. Good luck.

@nick. It's a matter of attitude. In other words, It's a problem of will power. It's obvious you don't like what you have t study, but you have to find something by your own that will guide you towards that attitude which makes it easier focusing on studying. You can do it. I have done it many times and it worked. It's not easy but It's possible. Finally you'll be so satisfyed dog a well done thing! So all you have to do is 'to want'. That's the only way you can do it by yourself.

So how many are on this board when everyone else thinks they're revising (like me)?

Just don't think of sludying as some special task. Do it as some routine work.

You tried and you failed, so the lesson is - "never try"

@DJCreamz
I seriously laughed out loud at that. In a physics class
.
Oh and I doubt it'll work, im not the most attractive guy, and it was on tape. Like audio cassete. I'd have to describe myself touching myself intimately, and that would defeat the purpose. Besides, I don't know whether the examiner is a male of a female
.

Posted by DJcreamz
lol well i dont think u describing touching yourself on audio tape would go down with a male or female would probably come across as slightly perverted..... come to think of it as would standing in front of the class doing it, there was logic behind it somewhere but its been lost in all the smut...
Posted by nickorooster
Yeah. I guessed that, and even if there was logic, I still can't see it from all the "smut"
