Title: ARRGH
Post by: WiinolikePS3 on January 14, 2008, 03:01:25 PM
My Dad is making me study non-stop for exams... the only reason I'm on now is because he's not home yet.

I've got to the point where I'm already gonna ace all of the exams, and I'm just sitting in a chair, staring at a paper, drooling for 2 hours straight.

EVER HEARD OF BREAKS??? When he DOES give me a break, all I can do is sit there while he ninnyes about me having a B in one class.

I don't study at all, and I always get a B or an A. This is the first time all year I've actually studied, but since exams are BIG AND IMPORTANT, I have to study about 5-6 hours a day... well, at least, I'm supposed to...  :P

Conventional studying is the worst way of studying.

What you're doing is even worse.

Explain to him calmly that studying will make you...

A. Do worse.
B. Will make you tired, groggy, and grouchy.
C. Do worse.

Explain Do Worse twice.

Then, explain that

A. If you listen in class, it is better than studying.
B. Studying under pressure is worse than someone telling you to study, which is still worse than studying yourself
C. Studying by yourself is almost always a bad idea, since there is always the influence of something better to do in your mind.


The only passable form of studying in my opinion is Flash Cards.

Simple, easy to make, and fun for competitions.

OK?

I really only need to study for History. I may ACTUALLY STUDY for about another hour, but after that, I'm just gonna hide in my room playing my DS, and hiding it when he comes near me.
