Alevel Students: How late do you study at night?
The lastest I've gotten is 2.30am once. No intention, just couldn't sleep no started at 9 then went to bed at 2.30.

However, a person I know really has some weird sleeping patterns. He comes home from school, eats, then goes to bed at like 5 - 7pm. Then wakes up, revises for an hour or so, then watches TV. Then revises from 9 - 11pm, then sleeps some more. Wakes at about 2ish. revises til 5 and then sleeps until its time for school. Now that seems harder. -
Re: Alevel Students: How late do you study at night?It's rare for me to work past 11. Almost never do I work past 12. Just don't function properly to be honest.(Original post by Future_Dr)

Re: Alevel Students: How late do you study at night?I honestly also have no sleeping patern, I will literally some days sleep 2 hours throughout the day, then others a good 12 hours. The ammount of sleep I get really depends on how far behind I am.(Original post by Future_Dr)

Re: Alevel Students: How late do you study at night?
I can never go past 12 with revsion unless it's just reading a whole load then i may but other than that's the latest I go i'm an earlybird so I tend to prefer early morning revsion starts and finsih around late evening. Probably catch up on stuff on I player for a bit thats it really during revsion times other than that it's revsion-eat-sleep-revision
like i just finsihed going through two whole topics for my histroy Exam making condensed revsion notes
got one more topic to finish off but really can't concentrate into the night unless i've got a stash of energy drinks then probably. :P

Wow, your friend has one messed up sleeping pattern. Isn't he knackered at school the next day? -

For me, it was until I felt tired, so would go to sleep between 1-2am. It was strictly 6 hours/day for me during the weeks leading up to my exams, with 1 or 2 20 min naps during the day.
Seriously, take a nap during the day! For 20 minutes... you'll feel like you have a new brain, and it helps with forming memories and turning your STM (short term memories) into L(long)TMs.
There's an app called Pzizz which puts you to sleep like a baby, and wakes you up shortly after feeling so (SO SO SO!) refreshed and recharged. It's for Android and iOS (as well as Mac and Windows). I'll admit that I was a skeptic and yes, I shamelessly torrented it last year thinking it wouldn't work, but happily paid for it when I realised that it has the power to revolutionise your day and workschedule. Try it!Last edited by janet9; 22-04-2012 at 21:58. Reason: Available for Windows and Mac, too! -
