Test Preparation

<p>I've been unable to concentrate lately, and whether that is the result of too much stress from AP classes with SAT's or just ADD/ADHD getting to me that I haven't found out about yet, I need some study aids before I flunk my classes</p>

<p>What kinds of study aids do you guys use? Ear plugs? Music? Energy drinks such as Red bull? Caffeine pills like No Doz? Ritalin?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I actually listen to old 80s metal, like Metallica (not the hair bands like Poison), the faster hard stuff that has intricate structure (Iron Maiden, not AC/DC's three chords!), and can block out anything else and really concentrate. Even when doing pre-cal. I can fall asleep to it blaring, too.</p>

<p>Strange but effective! Unless, of course, you hate metal.</p>
