    I'v wished lately i could study more than i'v ever wished i would win d lotto its jus not in me i'v a memory span of 8 secs, i live in a built up area wher der r kids out playin all evenin, screamin etc so dat jus breaks my concentration 2!! Ah i feel lik cryin....n d late nites studyin is doin nothin 4 my beauty!! ha ha ........ne ideas on how 2 control concentration n actually remember d stuf ur studyin?!:confused::confused:

    Stop crying, sympathy while it's great to get will not get you anywhere. How about school study? Libraries? Or... if kids playing is a noise problem, use ear plugs maybe? Surely there is somewhere you can go with more privacy? The other thing is, you may adapt to the noise, and start not to notice it. I go crazy if there's any noise, but my two brothers aren't affected at all... Two other things, one... If late nights are the only time you can study properly, then use them.... You could always study during school in the day when there will probably be less noise outside?

    yeah i use earplugs ASSEZBIEN- at home at the weekend as kids live nearme also!quite alot of them
    and the new trend in school seems to be earplugs also-not cos its noisy as such.

    dan719-completely agree...im in such a mood and gone reaaaaly quiet for the last couple of weeks and will be till the exams are over!

    Lads you really should go and live where she lives before you pass judgement. And our library doubles up as the town creche so its not much use.

    Haha. Living in culchieland has its advantages I suppose...

    Not when there's bloody cows in surrounding fields, that won't STFU

    OT, pissed cause I'm the only one doing App. Maths in the year, which means I finish on my owny own - methink'ing about going out getting "fackin-mouldy" after physics - still debating it though.(3 days in-between iirc)

    anyone else think that now the courses are long finished that we're better off staying at home 2 study?? 4 sum reason i feel i get more done at home when i can focus on d same subject 4 a couple of hours rather than 40min classes of each subject in school!:rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,469 ✭✭✭✭cson


    Each to their own I guess.

    Some people won't do anything at home hence school is the better option, others will work very well at home. I'd suggest if your having any problems in any areas to go into school and get the teacher to help you in that area.

    Yeah, finished June 13th..hist, bio, geog. Geog, bio and home ec is an impossible combination here..
    Our maths teacher claims that everyone should chose their subjects based on the LC timetable so they dont have all exams on successive days.

    Agree totally with Shaner-B, i get much more done at home, at the moment in school there is fundays and sports day and end of year partys, i just cant sit still and enjoy myself when the lc is looming in the background. I come home from a day of wandering zombie-like and fearful from repetitive class to class, come home exhausted and just want to sleep. I can get a really full days work done in the comfort of my own home... and i get a break to watch oprah... what could be any better:rolleyes:
