MD advice to getting thru with school

[Bee Anchor]

 As a MDer I have a few techniques - I would like to share with those who are in uni.

 - never study in your room

- group study if you get along with a few folks in your class

- exercise ,it clears your mind

- talk MD breaks after you have finished your study quota

-sleep on campus or in the library - try to avoid going to your room (then all bets are off)

-stay away from alarmists -they feed off fear

-believe that you  are going to make it (most important)

ITS NOT OVER TILL ITS OVER

 

These are tried and tested techniques (just officially graduated today from masters program (distinction)) in electrical engineering ........don't give up you can do it!!!!!!!

Great advice. The studying with friends has helped me alot during midterms this year. less tendency to daydream. :)

Totally agree... it probably takes me six times as long to complete ANYTHING in my room compared to on campus/in public... exercise is a big help too.

Hi! Congratulations on graduating! Well done. I've noticed these things help me too, its just that I keep forgetting them and relapsing into the old cycle of dd-ing, not getting anything done, and more dd-ing cuz of that.

I've started studying in a library. I've also seen that if I take a break when I catch myself, it helps to an extent, like I get up, wash my face, talk to someone, walk around and then get back. Also, exercise also really really helps me clear the mind too.

Thanks for the tips. I study in my house but definitely not in my room for various reasons. I used to study in my room and many times I end up falling asleep instead. Exercise gets your blood and lympathic system flowing so it  helps with studying. And congrats on graduating!
