I heard that cramming the day before finals is supposedly bad for you. But I guess some people's studying methods are like that and they can't change since they are used to it already. Whatever works best for them I guess. Drink energy drinks, like Red Bull. JUST 1 DONT DRINK MORE THAN ONE OR YOU WILL DIE. I'm in engineering too and I can see next that next week I'll be doing the same, yikes =/
Red Bull, Bah, the little market adjacent to the ME and CS buildings sells this stuff called BOOKOO, its 2 bucks, 24 oz and has the saem caffiene per oz, ie 80mgish / 8oz as redbull.
CmDR_RavEn: I envy what you accomplished. I pretty much awaken -> read -> class -> lab -> read -> sleep, every day, and still am forced to do this shit at least twice a month, more when midterms, finals and projects are due. Also, In the last year and a half, I've never had a programming project that could be done in less than about 96 hrs of coding... *grumble*...
edit: w/ re: to cramming the night before a test, I have discovered that it will help a great deal for that test, but as soon as you wake up the following day you will remember NOTHING that you had studied.
When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills
I've never done more than 3 hours of studying at a time, but I've done a day and a half without sleep while playing poker.
