    Well you could start by telling us where you live so people near you can help you :)

    Libraries are your best bet, some are busy but some are really quiet so chose the one you prefer

    Personally libraries never worked for me...could never get comfy to really knuckle down...but if it works for you go for it...honestly for me it can be any place as long as it's quiet and comfy...my study place for the LC was my bed would you believe...no table or a bit just planted on my bed...worked really well I think as 1. I got more points than I needed and 2. I studied for my pre's in a designated study room in my house that was quiet, nice atmosphere and had plenty space but i couldn't get comfy...I failed 2 subjects in my micks. Now my study area wasn't fully to blame but I know it definitely affected my abilities to comprehend and retain information...

    So yeah anywhere quiet and comfortable should work....I had a similar situation to yours at one stage last year and ended up studying for a whole weekend in my Dad's car and it worked great for me..

    Just find out what you need to study effectively and then go from there...

    Best of luck with the study and the exams in 2013 :D

    I find I study better on my bed as well instead of a well lit table etc. or on a Sunday in front of a fire on a bean bag .. Sounds too comfy but I find it brilliant :)
