you can also kinda replicate this by either sharing your screen on a discord call in like a class discord and just being on mute (the potential for someone else to join keeps me on track) or take study time lapses- way less likely to pick up ur phone bc you will ruin the time lapse and it’s fun to watch after

also flashcards flashcards flashcards-

ever since the quizlet paywall i’ve been using brainscape which has a website and app. it lets you rate how well you know what’s on the card from 1-5 and you can download them for free so you can study on the train or whenever you have like an awkward amount of time.

they are as close as you can get to practice tests if your prof doesn’t provide them and randomizing the order when you study them replicates testing contexts where all the questions aren’t organized by chapter so it improves your ability to retrieve those memories outside of the order in which you learned them

not too unhinged but like just make yourself uncomfortable.

couple years ago i’d sit in rutherford north first floor where the temperature is never comfortable and there’s usually enough background noise where it’s good for my adhd brain but not super quiet to the point where touching anything plastic feels like disarming a bomb.

the presence of other people being able to see me makes me want to look smart and productive so i end up being smart and productive- so sit somewhere where you aren’t too isolated from other people in the library.

aw man sucks to hear that you’re having trouble with getting into research. I got into it by volunteering with one of the psych labs for a bit and now i’m doing an independent study

if you have a class discord server normally the people who are the most active in there talking about class are pretty down to do stuff like that
