Manage your study space

Make sure you have sufficient space to spread your textbooks and notes out. Have you got as much as necessary light? Is your chair comfortable? Are your computer games out of sight? Try and get rid of all distraction, and make sure you feel as comfortable and able to focus as possible. For some people, this may mean almost complete silence; for others, background music helps. Some of us need everything completely tidy and organized in order to concentrate, while others thrive in a more cluttered atmosphere. Think about what works for you, and take the time to get it right.
