No doubt many of you'll also be spending far too much time on the internet like me .

I just can't find the enthusiams needed to put in some hardcore revision . I've got a job lined up, and should be on for a 2.1, so the motivation's there - i just can't seem to concentrate and sit down and work .

Any ideas, and personal methods of making yourself work?

i'm currently doing dissertation. Haven't done revision but i've only got 1 exam, and a few essays to do. I find that if you reward yourself that works. i.e. i'm going to the pub today but not until i've done X amount of words. Once i've got to my target i can kick back. I always find the hardest thing is getting started, but once i have, i can fly through work. Hope this helps

Dissertation is due in two weeks today, and currently resides with my tutor in draft form for marking. Also have two reports for the same time, but i'm struggling to make sense of them TBH .

Got 5 exams though starting 16th may till 5th June .

fucking hated my uni days... all I did was work work work and work

and the thought of having to stay in and revise and do my dissertation whilst everyone was out washing their cars, chilling, out in a beer garden etc was a right BITCH!!!

those were the days

Go and sit by the pond outside your uni. Have a BBQ, drink beer and smoke weed all night long. That normally helps.
