Studying

I was just thinking about this earlier and I was wonder how much everyone here that's in college/university studies on the average day??? I'd have to say I do atleast an hour but usually close to 2 hours in a day. Oh and if you've graduated from college how much did you study???

not enough :/

I take my studying in large, hard to swallow doses, and wash it down with lots of coffee.

I have about 20 hours of studying ahead of me in the next 5 days.

Agreed. Got me on the Dean's list too.

about 7 hours of studying minimum a night and about 14 or so each day on the weekends. I was actually working on a class project from 7 till midnight last night and we will have to do that again to get it finished.

That is a LOT of studying!!! What's your major?!?!

are you Fn serious?! I'm glad i'm not doing what you're doing... i barely study, but i go to community college

Study.... um I think I did that once sophmore year?




In all honesty I really don't study, I work a full time job and a part time job totalling about 60-80 hours a week and am a full time college student as well... so yeah not alot of time for studying. But of course this may be why I am finishing up my 5th year and will be doing one more semester in the fall... My friends are starting to call me Van Wilder :shakehead

Seriously, what's studying???

Between my time here on AF, MySpace, games, going out, IMing, and emailing, I ain't got time for such trivial nonsense.









I pull all nighters when I have to or study for about 3 hours before a test. All nighters go towards projects more and essay than tests. Meh...college is a bore. In the academic sens,e but it's only my first year. 3 more to go! w00t w00t

i study for about an hour or so a day or two before a test. otherwise homework is studying as far as i'm concerned.

I study at work...well partly. I'd say I get about 4-5 hours of studying/homework done every shift.

I never really studied in high school or college. I found that I have a photographic memory and when I took tests, I could "recall" the info from my notes or lecture. I graduated in the top 3% of my high school class of about 520 people, and made the Dean's List in college 3 out of 4 semesters. My wife dubbed me a walking encyclopedia and phone book as I never forget anything.

I dont study...ever, i'll skim through my notes right before a test, that's about it. I seem to do pretty well without it though, studying just isn't for me. I've gotten this far without it.

Yeah but Van was the man, you cant argue that. Plus he got Tara Reid i would goto college for 8 years to get her, lol.

Im a mechanical engineer. we have a lot of work, and its not usualy easy.

Well I am the man... can't argue with that.... now i just have to find my Tara Reid.

It really depends on what I have coming up. I dont usually really study unless I have a test coming up. I do my math homework and I guess that counts as studying. Also if I have something I am having a hard time grasping in one of my classes I read over the chapter or read ahead before the lecture etc. Id say if you took all my studying all week and divided it up into a day it would be about 2 hours a day.

Study for a test or class? No.
B.S. for a test or class? Yes.

Funny we should discuss studying, because I had been studying for my physics final for the past 3 days.

Well, today I wrote my physics final, which I went into with an A average, so needless to say I was fairly comfortable with my buffer zone. Even if I didn't write the exam, mathematically my mark would work out to be somewhere around 60% which is what I need to go on to the next course. This is where the 40% rule comes in; if you don't get at least 40% on the final, the best mark you can get is a D, regardless of what your mark actually works out to be. I had the best mark in my class...but I choked up on my final and I will be lucky to get 40% on it. So I guess I'm gonna have to redo the ENTIRE COURSE. Only I can acheive a 2 grade point drop in 3 hours.

I wonder how badly I can mess up my Chem final coming up. I'm sure I will find a way to outdo myself.

Just out of curiosity how many college students actually buy thier books? I haven't bought books in at least 3 or 4 semesters... quite frankly they are worthless. between the internet and the teachers lectures I do well enough to pass.

I buy my books, and it costs an arm and a leg. Some are more useful than others. Some I don't ever even crack but are great reference material in the future.

I've got a 2500 word essay and 3 small assignments due and a test in between Wednesday and Friday, you'd think I'd have started by now......
