How do you motivate yourself to study (for AS Levels)?

I know what you mean, I alway say to myself that at will start doing my work at say 5 o'clock but then get distracted and end up starting at half eight ect. What I am doing now is just having to focus myself, say for example refuse to let myself watch a TV show until after I have done a certain amount of work. Also start the work the day you get it so it isn't left and rushed at the last minute as well as you forgetting half the stuff about it. Hope this helped.

You have nothing better to be doing than working hard during this period of your life. All the fun, partying, and girls can be done to a better extent a uni.

Also AS/A2 is the period where you are probably going to get the best pay off for your hard work, in terms of going to uni not going, Oxbridge or Crappy Uni X.

Read last years A-Level results day thread. Going into results day is bad, going into results day with a tight margin is terrible, going in being 90% you haven't made your firm is dreadful, looking on track and seeing you missed one or both, I can't say but judging by people's faces its the worse feeling in the world.

I've seen happier faces at funerals than people seeing their results for the first time and not getting what they needed.

EDIT: Also working hard during exams run up pays off tenfold to during the year.

Good point. I find it easier to do work in college during frees but if there's no sense of urgency, I find it very difficult to concentrate! Especially if it's not set work, just study.
