adderall lol

for me to study i watch study vids on yt, with calming music in the background. cant study unless i feel like a study gorl. theres a lot of apps/sites on the world wide web that do math n stuff on how long your study sesh should be + study breaks and tips i guess.
also extentions on chrome that help. rofocus for example is for tracking time for "focus sessions". Forest is great cause you set a timer and it blocks pages, and you can whitelist pages that are for school n that shit but it wont allow you to get distracted with other stuff. its an app, too. love it.

six exam periods?? do you ever not have exams then damn

understandable😭 i guess structuring your time is a better way to phrase it, like setting off time to study and have breaks so you use your time well without overworking yourself

so semesters are october-december and ? march-may i think
exams r january, february, may, june, august, september
and technically you can finish all of them in may and get it over with, or drag it out and study over summer as well

thats brutal wth

Just tell yourself you love and accept yourself whatever the results of the tests. That should at least help with the worst of the stress and whatnot.
