What are ways you can study but not fall asleep?

Do not try high sugar foods as you will get a short term boost, but then crash and get sleepy. You want slow releasing energy so try foods such as bananas and carbohydrates such as pasta. Keep your brain hydrated with plenty of water and give yourself fresh air. Being warm can mean you get sleepy, so study near a window that you just have open a little an circulate the air. Take regular breaks, and give yourself incentives such as a treat after every 45 minutes. Also make sure that you rotate what you are stuying every hour or so, if you have several subjects to look at.

Make sure you do not keep yourself awake for too long though. Sleep will help you process the information and keep you more alert and able to concentrate the next day to either study more or be able to recall the information.

Don’t you kids know? Adderall dude, its an ADD drug that has only 1 side-effect of higher blood pressure but if you take 20-40 mg’s it’ll keep you up, awake and alert for about 24 hours straight. When its effects finally ware off during the day you won’t even feel tired at all, just go to sleep at your normal time the next time. Number one drug for Michigan University students during mid-terms/finals. Just find a friend that has ADD and get his drugs off him, take 2-4 pills and BAM, 12 hour study session non-stop. You’ll be staying focused for hours.
Sugar and caffeine, HA, prescription drugs is where its at guys. Get with the times.

If it’s a book I don’t want to read I do it in increments.

So I’ll force myself to read a chapter, then do something I want to do for like 10-20mins. Like playing a game, chatting, etc. Then read another chapter, then do something else.

Usually I just listen to music though and sing along while I read…

I write notes of what I study in shorthand and practice a lot (if it involves math). I dont get sleepy much when I write. So yeah.

Chocolate, soda, some major sweet stuff if you dont have stuff like that get some icing and eat it lolz it dose work!! hope dis helped
