The lines at Starbucks seem to be longer, all your favorite study spots are taken, and suddenly there aren\u2019t enough hours in a day. If that isn\u2019t bad enough, all you can think about is what you\u2019re going to be doing for Spring Break.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re not alone. Here are a few tips to get you through it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Time management: Before you begin studying, plan what you need to study and schedule when you\u2019re going to study. Stick to the schedule.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Schedule in study breaks: Once you have a study schedule, allow yourself a few study breaks between each session. You can do a number of things on your study break like stretching, eating a snack, take a quick walk, listen to two of your favorite songs, or read a magazine. Do not get on any social networking sites during these breaks.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Make sure you\u2019re sleeping: Do your best to not to pull an \u201call-nighter.\u201d Your brain will thank you.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Collaborate with a few peers and create a study group. Langsdale Library has plenty of space for you and a few friends to study. In fact we have three floors dedicated to group study, the basement, first and second floors.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Do not be afraid to ask for help: If you don\u2019t understand something, schedule an appointment with your professor. You may also come to Langsdale where a librarian can assist you with research.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022Stay positive!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Its midterm season again, one of the most intense times on campus!
